Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs Chicken Breast
- 1/2 cup Cashews
- 2 Bell Peppers (Mixed)
- 1/2 Onion
- 1/4 cup Coconut Aminos
- 1/2 cup Chicken Broth
- 2 tbsp Rice Vinegar
- 1 tsp Ginger
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1/4 tsp Xanthan Gum
- 2 tbsp Avocado Oil
Instructions
- 1Cut the 1.5 lbs of Chicken Breast into 1-inch pieces. Slice the 2 Bell Peppers (Mixed) and the 1/2 Onion.
- 2Heat 2 tbsp of Avocado Oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat, which is 400°F (200°C).
- 3Add the 1.5 lbs of Chicken Breast pieces to the hot skillet. Stir-fry for 5-7 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- 4Add the sliced 2 Bell Peppers (Mixed) and 1/2 Onion to the same skillet. Stir-fry for 3-5 minutes, until they are slightly tender but still have a slight crispness.
- 5While the vegetables are cooking, in a bowl, whisk together the 1/4 cup Coconut Aminos, 1/2 cup Chicken Broth, 2 tbsp Rice Vinegar, 1 tsp Ginger, 2 cloves Garlic (minced), and 1/4 tsp Xanthan Gum until well combined.
- 6Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the vegetables. Pour the sauce mixture over the chicken and vegetables. Cook for 2-4 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon.
- 7Stir in the 1/2 cup Cashews and cook for 1 more minute to heat them through. Serve the Keto Cashew Chicken hot.
