Ingredients

• 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast or boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
• 2 tablespoons canola oil (divided)
• 1 cup chopped baby bok choy
• 1 cup sugar snap peas or snow peas
• 1 cup chopped broccoli or broccolini
• 1/2 cup bean sprouts
• 3 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
• 3 cloves garlic, minced

Sauce

• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons water
• 1/4 cup chicken broth
• 4 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce (for a gluten-free dinner use tamari)
• 1/4 cup honey
• crushed red pepper flakes (optional)

Here's how to make it: 

1. To make the sauce, combine the cornstarch and water. Mix well. Add the chicken broth, soy sauce and honey. Set aside.
2. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Drop the chicken into the skillet and cook, stirring, until cooked through, about 5 minutes. Remove to a plate.
3. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil to the skillet. Add the vegetables and cook until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger and cook for 30 seconds more. 
4. Put the chicken back into the skillet. Pour in the sauce and cook until it thickens slightly, about 2 minutes. Serve over rice, if desired. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and reheat in the microwave.
