Sweet Ginger Sizzlin’ Asian Chicken Stir-Fry

Ingredients

• 11/4 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
• 2 TBS vegetable oil
• 1 medium red bell pepper, sliced thin
• 1 cup snap peas, trimmed
• 1 medium carrot, julienned
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 11/2 inch piece fresh ginger, grated
• 2 green onions, sliced thin
• 3 TBS soy sauce
• 1 TBS rice vinegar
• 1 TBS honey
• 1 TBS Salted Perfection Sweet Ginger
• 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
• to taste black pepper
• 2 cups cooked jasmine rice (for serving)

Instructions

1. Heat a large 12-inch wok or heavy skillet over high heat until smoking hot—this is where the magic starts. Add vegetable oil and swirl to coat.
2. Toss in chicken pieces in a single layer. Let ’em sear without moving for 2 minutes to get that golden crust. Flip and cook until just done, about 3-4 more minutes. Remove chicken and set aside.
3. In the same pan, add garlic, grated ginger, and crushed red pepper flakes. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant—don’t burn it, capisce?
4. Add bell pepper, snap peas, and carrot. Stir-fry veggies for 3-4 minutes until tender-crisp. You want ’em bright and snappy, not mushy.
5. Return chicken to the wok. Pour in soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, and Salted Perfection Sweet Ginger. Toss everything together over high heat to coat and glaze the chicken and veggies evenly, about 2 minutes.
6. Season with black pepper to taste, sprinkle sliced green onions on top, give it one last toss, and you’re golden.
7. Serve hot over jasmine rice. Remember, a good dish is like a good story — it’s gotta have layers and a little kick.
