Ingredients

  • 1 stalk celery cut into thin strips
  • 1 large carrot 2" long, cut into thin strips
  • 1 red pepper cut into thin strips
  • 1 cups shiitake mushrooms sliced
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 1 cup baby corn
  • 3 green onions sliced
  • 2 cups bean sprouts
  • 1 pound chicken breasts boneless skinless (about 2 large or 3 small)
  • 2 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ cup teriyaki sauce
  • ¼ cup soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon chili sauce
  • 2 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • ½ teaspoon pepper or to taste

Instructions

  • Start by chopping and slicing all the vegetables and the chicken.
  • In a large wok, heat up the sesame seed oil and olive oil. Add the chicken and stir fry until the chicken is cooked through.
  • In a small bowl, whisk the teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, chili sauce and salt and pepper.
  • Add the carrots, celery, red pepper, broccoli, mushrooms, and baby corn to the wok. Pour the sauce over the veggies and chicken and toss well.
  • Before turning off the heat, add the bean sprouts, green onions and sesame seeds.
  • Serve over steamed rice.

Notes

  1. Teriyaki Sauce: Store-bought teriyaki sauces can vary in sweetness and thickness. Taste your sauce and adjust the quantity based on your preference.
  2. Soy Sauce: Opt for low-sodium soy sauce if you're watching your salt intake. You can always add a pinch of salt later if needed.
  3. Chili Sauce Heat: The spiciness of chili sauces can differ. Add gradually and taste to get the heat level you desire.
  4. Serving Suggestion: This stir fry pairs wonderfully with both steamed rice and noodles. For a low-carb option, consider serving with cauliflower rice.
