Ingredients

  • 1 pound of boneless, skinless chicken breasts sliced into smaller chunks/slices (1″)
  • 1 egg w/ 2 tablespoon water (beaten)
  • 1/2 cup flour (or cornstarch)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 cup cauliflower florets
  • 1 cup sugar snap peas (make sure to remove the spline)
  • 1 can sliced water chestnuts (drained well)
  • 5 button mushrooms, cleaned and halved
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon minced garlic (you can use less – I like a garlic taste)
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce (low sodium)
  • 3 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil (more may be necessary)
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon Pepper

Instructions

  1. Prepare all veggies – you can use any type you want here as the recipe is pretty liberal.
  2. In 1 bowl, light beat the egg and water.
  3. In another bowl mix the flour, 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. *Note: if you want a really crispy chicken like ‘fried’ chicken, use the cornstarch.
  4. Heat a large skillet over med-high heat and 1-2 tablespoon oil.
  5. Add veggies and saute for 5 minutes.
  6. Add garlic and soy sauce, combine. Saute for 1 minute.
  7. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper and 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes and combine.
  8. Remove veggies from heat and transfer to a bowl.
  9. In the same pan you just used, add remaining oil (you may need to add 1-2 more tablespoon if necessary)
  10. Dip chicken pieces into egg mixture and then lightly dredge in seasoned flour/cornstarch.
  11. Add to oil and let brown for 3-4 minutes then flip.
  12. Once chicken is all brown and set aside to remove excess fat, if there is oil left in the pan, take a paper towel and lightly wipe it out.
  13. Return chicken and veggies to the pan over med-high heat.
  14. Add honey and sesame seeds and thoroughly mix to combine.
  15. Taste and adjust spices accordingly (add more salt/pepper or soy sauce.
  16. Serve over white rice and top with crispy Asian noodles.
