Directions

Combine 2 tablespoons tamari (or soy sauce), 1 tablespoon vinegar and 2 teaspoons cornstarch in a shallow dish. Stir in chicken and set aside.

Mix the remaining 3 tablespoons each tamari (or soy sauce) and vinegar, 2 teaspoons cornstarch and honey in a small bowl; set near the stove.

Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large flat-bottom wok or cast-iron skillet over high heat until shimmering. Add the chicken in a single layer and cook until golden on one side, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip and cook for 1 minute more. Transfer the chicken to a plate.

Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the pan. Add garlic, ginger and scallions and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds. Stir in broccoli and water, quickly cover and steam for 2 minutes.

Add snow peas and return the chicken and any accumulated juices. Stir the reserved sauce and add to the pan. Cook, stirring frequently and scraping up any browned bits, until the sauce is thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in basil.

Nutrition Facts(per serving)

  • Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
