Spicy Peanut Chicken

Ingredients

• 1½ lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• ½ cup peanut butter
• ¼ cup soy sauce
• 2 tbsp rice vinegar
• 2 tbsp honey
• 1 tbsp sesame oil
• 1 tbsp fresh ginger
• 2 clove garlic
• 1 tbsp sriracha
• ¼ cup water
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1 red bell pepper
• 2 cup broccoli florets
• 4 cup cooked rice (optional)
• 2 green onions (optional)
• 1 tsp sesame seeds (optional)

Steps

1. Whisk together peanut butter, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, sesame oil, grated ginger, minced garlic, sriracha, and water in a bowl to create the peanut sauce.
2. Cut chicken breasts into 1-inch pieces. Heat olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.
3. Add sliced red bell pepper and broccoli florets to the same skillet. Stir-fry for 3-5 minutes until vegetables are tender-crisp.
4. Return chicken to the skillet. Pour the peanut sauce over the chicken and vegetables, stirring to coat evenly. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
5. Serve immediately over cooked rice, garnished with chopped green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.
