total timeIngredients
1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts cut into 1 inch cubes
1/2 tablespoon avocado oil
1/4 cup coconut aminos
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1 tablespoon garlic cloves (minced)
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon lime zest (zest of one lime)
1 tablespoon lime juice (juice of one lime)
1 tablespoons sesame seeds (for garnish)
2 cups cooked green beans
1 cup cooked white rice
Directions
Prep your chicken by cutting into small cubes. Cook white rice and green beans according to directions.
In a pan, heat avocado oil for 1 minute. Add chicken to the pan and sauté chicken over medium high heat until browned on all sides, approximately 10-12 minutes.
While chicken is cooking, whisk together the sauce.
Once chicken is cooked, remove from the pan + set aside.
Pour sauce mixture into the hot pan (no need to clean it!) and cook for 3-5 minutes over medium high heat until it starts to bubble, stirring consistently. The sauce will thicken quickly, but be careful to watch that it doesn't burn.
Add cooked chicken back into the pan and coat in sauce.
Serve sesame chicken over cooked rice and green beans.
