• 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 small onion, diced
• 1 red bell pepper, seeded and diced
• 1 cup sliced mushrooms
• 1 cup frozen peas and carrots
• 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce

Directions:

1. Heat a wok or large frying pan over high heat. Add the vegetable oil and swirl to coat the pan.

3. Remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside.
4. In the same pan, add the onion, bell pepper, mushrooms, and frozen peas and carrots. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
5. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, and cornstarch. Pour the mixture over the vegetables and bring to a boil.
6. Add the cooked chicken back into the pan and stir to coat with the sauce.
7. Season the stir-fry with salt and pepper to taste.
8. Serve the chicken and vegetable stir-fry hot over rice or noodles. Enjoy!
