Instructions

 

• Slice chicken thighs into 1/4" pieces . Combine the ingredients for the chicken in a large bowl and stir to coat, then set aside for 15 minutes to marinate.
• Combine the ingredients for the sauce in a small bowl and set aside.
• In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the chicken in the avocado oil for 10-12 minutes, stirring the chicken often to prevent sticking, until the chicken is cooked through. Remove the chicken to a plate.
• In the same skillet, stir fry the green beans for 2-3 minutes until slightly blistered, then add the onions and stir fry for another 30 seconds. Add in the ginger and garlic and stir fry for 30 seconds or until fragrant.
• Then add back the cooked chicken and pour in the sauce and mix until combined.

  Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the sauce has coated the chicken and green beans. Serve with steamed brown rice and enjoy!!
