Servings: 4 servings
Equipment
Ingredients
Stir Fry Sauce:
- ½ cup soy sauce or coconut aminos
- 3 tbsp golden Monkfruit sweetener
- 2 tbsp cornstarch optional
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 1 ½ tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp ground ginger
Stir Fry:
- ¼ cups sesame oil divided
- 2 chicken breasts cut into 1 inch cubes
- 1 ½ cups frozen broccoli
- 1 red bell pepper sliced
- 1 yellow onion sliced
- 14 oz shirataki noodles spaghetti style
- ½ cup shredded carrots
- Green onions and sesame seeds optional for garnish
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, stir together the stir-fry sauce ingredients and set aside. Remove the shirataki noodles from its packaging and rinse very thoroughly (2 minutes or so) in a colander. Squeeze out as much liquid as possible, then set it aside to allow the noodles to dry a bit.
- Heat 2 tbsp of the oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the diced chicken and stir fry until cooked through to 165 degrees. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
- Add the remaining 2 tbsp of sesame oil to the pan, then add the broccoli, bell pepper, and onion. Cook until the broccoli is thawed out and the vegetables are softened, about 6-7 minutes.
- Drain the shirataki noodles and place them in the large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shredded carrots as well. Stir fry for 2-3 minutes until the carrots are softened and the noodles are hot.
- Add the cooked chicken back to the skillet along with the stir-fry sauce. Toss everything to coat, and continue to cook for 2-3 minutes.
- Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds if desired. Serve!
Notes
- I used spaghetti-style shirataki noodles, but feel free to use angel hair if you prefer.
- The sauce is very thin and watery if you do not include the cornstarch, but it is still super flavorful and delicious. Leave it out if you want to save the carbs, but include it if you want the perfect texture for the sauce.
- Nutrition values below are calculated without the optional cornstarch (10.8 net carbs each).
