Ingredients

Scale

Protein & Vegetables:

  • 1 lb boneless chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
    (or substitute with boneless chicken thighs for juicier meat)

  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped

  • 1 yellow bell pepper, chopped

  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 12 fresh jalapeños, thinly sliced

  • 1 tbsp olive oil (or sesame oil for nuttier flavor)

  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

Sauce:

  • 2 tbsp soy sauce (use tamari or coconut aminos for gluten-free)

  • 1 tbsp hoisin sauce (or oyster sauce)

  • 1 tbsp sriracha (adjust to taste)

Garnish:

  • Chopped green onions

  • Fresh cilantro, chopped


Instructions

  • Cook the Chicken:
    Heat oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add chicken, season with salt and pepper, and sauté for 5–7 minutes until cooked through. Remove and set aside.

  • Stir Fry Veggies:
    In the same pan, add bell peppers and garlic. Stir-fry for 3–4 minutes until slightly tender but still crisp.

  • Add Sauce & Chicken:
    Lower heat and stir in soy sauce, hoisin sauce, and sriracha. Return chicken to the pan. Mix well and simmer for 1–2 minutes.

  • Top It Off:
    Remove from heat. Garnish with fresh jalapeños, green onions, and cilantro.

 

  • Serve:
    Serve immediately over steamed rice, noodles, or cauliflower rice.

Notes

Storage: Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet or microwave with a splash of water.

Notes:

  • Adjust spice level by removing jalapeño seeds or reducing sriracha.

  • Add extra veggies like broccoli, zucchini, or mushrooms for variety.
