Chicken and Asparagus Stir-Fry RECIPE

Ingredients

1 Tbsp. soy sauce

1 Tbsp. honey

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces (about 1-inch)

1 Tbsp. olive oil

1 bunch asparagus, cut into bite-sized pieces

4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced

2 scallions, chopped

2 tsp. toasted sesame oil

(optional) 1 tsp. toasted sesame seeds

Directions

In a small bowl or in a ziplock bag, combine soy sauce and honey. Add chicken, and stir to coat. Set in the refrigerator until ready.

Meanwhile, heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add asparagus, and saute until cooked, about 5 minutes. Remove the asparagus with a slotted spoon, and set aside.

Remove chicken from marinade, and add to skillet. Saute until nearly cooked through (with the insides still slightly pink), about 5 minutes. Then add garlic, scallions, and the reserved marinade to the pan. Saute for an additional 2 minutes until the chicken is cooked and the garlic is fragrant. Remove from heat and stir in sesame oil. Serve immediately with rice, garnished with toasted sesame seeds if desired.
