Ingredients

Instructions

  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat with extra virgin olive oil.
  • Place chopped chicken in a bowl with 2 tablespoons of tapioca flour. Stir to coat the chicken, add salt and pepper then transfer it to a skillet keeping the chicken spaced out enough so they won't stick together. Depending on the size of your skillet, you may need to work in batches.
  • Cook 5-7 minutes until chicken is cooked through then transfer to a plate.
  • To the skillet, add broccoli florets, bell peppers, garlic and ginger. Stir to combine then let the veggies cook 4-5 minutes until tender.
  • While the veggies cook, place honey, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar and 1/2 tablespoon of tapioca flour in a bowl and whisk together.
  • Pour the sauce over the veggies then add the chicken back to the pan with the cashews. Stir to combine cooking another 2-3 minutes to heat through.
  • Serve immediately over a side of choice or portion into 4 meal prep containers.

Notes

  • Serve with brown rice, quinoa, cauliflower rice or enjoy on it's own!
    Rice is not included in nutritional values. I used 1/2 cup in this recipe for each serving.
  • There are 4 servings in this recipe, ~1-2 cups each. I evenly divided mine in meal prep containers so they were already pre-portioned.
  • My Amazon shop has more products similar to those used for this recipe and that I recommend to my nutrition clients.
