A quick and vibrant stir fry featuring tender garlic chicken and spiralized zucchini noodles, tossed in a glossy soy-ginger sauce.

  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb (450g) boneless, skinless chicken breasts, sliced into thin strips
  • 3 medium zucchinis, spiralized
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 cup carrots, julienned
  • 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon grated ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons green onions, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add the sliced chicken, season with salt and pepper, and stir-fry for 5–7 minutes until cooked through and lightly golden. Remove chicken from the pan and set aside.
  2. In the same pan, add another tablespoon of olive oil and sauté minced garlic over medium heat until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  3. Add red bell pepper and carrots to the pan, stir-fry for 3–4 minutes until they begin to soften.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, grated ginger, and red pepper flakes.
  5. Return the cooked chicken to the pan, pour the sauce over the chicken and vegetables, and stir to combine. Cook for an additional 2–3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
  6. In another pan, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat, add spiralized zucchini noodles, and sauté for about 2 minutes until tender but firm.
  7. Combine zucchini noodles with the chicken and vegetable stir-fry, tossing until well mixed and noodles are coated with sauce.
  8. Remove from heat, garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds before serving.

Notes

Formeal prep, slice the chicken and spiralize zucchini the day before. Cooked chicken can be refrigerated and warmed before serving.
