This super easy stir-fry is packed with flavour. We tossed in some chopped cashews for lots of crunch.

Ingredients

Vegetable oil

2 tsp(s), divided

Sesame oil

1 tsp(s), divided

Ginger root

1½ tbsp(s), finely chopped

Garlic

3 clove(s), large, finely chopped

Uncooked boneless skinless chicken breast

1 pound(s), cut into 1/2-inch pieces

Red bell pepper

1 large, cut into 1-inch pieces

Broccoli

2 cup(s), florets

Low sodium soy sauce

2 tbsp(s)

Dry roasted salted cashews

20 item(s), roasted, unsalted, roughly chopped

Instructions

  1. Heat a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Add 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil, 1/2 teaspoon of sesame oil, ginger and garlic; cook 15 seconds. Add chicken and stir-fry until starting to brown, about 3 to 4 minutes; remove to a plate.
  2. Add remaining teaspoon of vegetable oil, pepper and broccoli to same skillet; stir-fry for 3 minutes. Add chicken back to skillet, pour in soy sauce and cook, stirring, until chicken is cooked through, about 2 minutes more; toss with remaining 1/2 teaspoon of sesame oil. Sprinkle on cashews and serve. Yields about 1 3/4 cup per serving.

Notes

We chopped the nuts so we could cut back on the total amount used but still sprinkle a lot on the dish.
