Course: dinner, lunch, Main Course
Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • 1 lb chicken sliced into bite-sized pieces
  • 3 bell peppers sliced
  • 1 large onion sliced
  • 3 tbsp white balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce or coconut aminos
  • 4 cloves garlic finely minced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 2-3 cups cooked rice

Instructions

  • In a small bowl combine balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, garlic, 1 tbsp olive oil, honey and black pepper. Whisk until combined.
  • Add chicken pieces to a medium bowl and then pour marinade over chicken pieces. Toss until chicken is coated with sauce.
  • Heat a large skillet on medium heat and add chicken with marinade. Cook for about 10-12 minutes until chicken is cooked through and golden brown and sauce is slightly thickened. 
  • Remove chicken from the pan and set aside.
  • In the same pan, heat 1 tbsp of olive oil and then add peppers and onions on medium-high heat for about 6-7 minutes. Make sure to use a spatula to deglaze all of the flavors and browned bits from the bottom of the pan! Season peppers and onions with salt and pepper if desired to taste.
  • Add chicken back to the pan (make sure to add back any sauce that you removed, too!) and toss well. Serve over white rice.
  • Top with green onions and red pepper flakes if desired!
