Recipe Tips

  • Make sure your skillet or wok is hot before adding the oil – this will help prevent sticking.
  • Cut your chicken into small, bite-sized pieces to ensure it cooks evenly and quickly.
  • Whisk the sauce together in a separate bowl before adding it to the skillet – this will help ensure everything gets evenly coated.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables – you want them to be just heated through and still slightly crispy.
  • If you have any leftover cooked rice or chicken, this recipe is a great way to use them up!
