• 份量: 4 servings
• 准备时间: 10 minutes
• 总时间: 30 minutes

配料

1 to 1 1/2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts (cut into 1-inch pieces)

1 Tbsp arrowroot powder (or cornstarch)

1/2 tsp garlic powder

1/4 tsp onion powder

1/4 tsp salt

1/4 tsp black pepper

2 Tbsp olive oil (divided)

12 oz green beans (trimmed)

1/4 cup green onions (chopped)

Sesame seeds (optional garnish)

1/4 cup chicken broth

3 Tbsp low-sodium soy sauce

1/4 cup honey

4 cloves garlic (minced)

1/2 tsp grated ginger (or 1/4 tsp ground ginger)

2 tsp arrowroot powder (or cornstarch)

步骤

Cut the chicken into 1-inch cubes. Mix together 1 tablespoon of arrowroot powder, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper then toss with the chicken making sure each piece is lightly coated.

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil to coat the pan. Once the pan is hot, add the chicken pieces in an even layer. Season with salt and pepper and cook until lightly browned, about 4 to 5 minutes, stirring the chicken as needed. Once the chicken is cooked, transfer to a plate and set aside.

Drizzle another tablespoon of olive oil onto the hot skillet, add the green beans and season with a little salt and pepper. Saute the green beans for about 6 minutes until they start to get a little char and are tender, but still crisp. We don’t want floppy green beans!

While things are cooking, whisk together the chicken broth, soy sauce, honey, garlic and ginger in a small bowl. Separately, whisk together 2 teaspoons arrowroot powder (or cornstarch) along with 2 teaspoons of water and mix until smooth. Set aside.

Once the green beans are nice and tender, add the chicken back into the pan and mix together. Pour the honey garlic sauce over top, add in the arrowroot mixture to help thicken up the sauce, and stir well making sure everything is coated. Bring the sauce to a boil then turn down the heat and let everything simmer until the sauce has thickened up and everything is incorporated.

Top with sliced green onions (aka scallions) and some sesame seeds. Serve over rice and enjoy!
