The Best 10-Minute Honey Garlic Chicken Stir-Fry

Ingredients:

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces

2 tablespoons olive oil

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 red bell pepper, sliced thin

1 yellow bell pepper, sliced thin

1 cup snap peas

¼ cup honey

3 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon cornstarch

¼ cup water

Salt & pepper, to taste

Sesame seeds & chopped green onions (optional, for garnish)

Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Make the Magic Sauce

In a small bowl, whisk water, cornstarch, soy sauce, and honey into a silky paste. This is where the magic happens—this sauce gets that annoying but irresistible ratio of sweetness, saltiness, and umami richness just right. Reserve.

2. Fire Up the Pan

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper, and then place it in the hot skillet. Sear and sizzle them for 3-4 minutes, turning them occasionally, until they form a beautiful golden-brown crust.

Time to add some crunch and spice it up! Stir in the minced garlic, red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, and snap peas. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, until the vegetables just soften but still have a good crunch.

4. Sauce It Up

Give that honey garlic sauce a quick stir, then pour it over the chicken and veggies. Stir everything vigorously to ensure the sauce coats each piece beautifully. Cook for another 1-2 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken to glossy perfection.

5. Serve & Enjoy!

Remove from heat and—if you’re feeling fancy—sprinkle on sesame seeds and chopped green onions for extra flavor and crunch. Serve immediately over steaming rice or noodles.

FAQs—You Asked, We Answered!

Q: Can I use chicken thighs instead of chicken breasts?

You bet you can! Boneless, skinless chicken thighs are a great substitute and more tender in texture. Just increase the cooking time by a minute or two.

Q: How do I make this recipe vegetarian?

Substitute the chicken with firm tofu or tempeh! Just remember to press the tofu first so it can absorb all that wonderful sauce.

Q: Can I lower the sodium in this recipe?

Replace the regular soy sauce with low-sodium soy sauce and decrease salt content. Raise the proportion of vegetables to chicken to naturally cut down on sodium consumption.

Q: Do leftovers go bad? 

Yes! Microwave or cook on the stove leftovers from a covered container refrigerated for a maximum of 3 days using low heat.
