Asian Inspired Chicken Stir Fry

Ingredients:

• 1-1/2 pounds skinless chicken, chopped into bite size pieces
• Coconut flour for breading
• 2 tbsp coconut oil
• 2 tbsp sesame oil
• 1 tbsp minced fresh ginger root
• 2-3 cloves garlic, minced

• 3 tbsp balsamic vinegar
• 3 cups fresh green beans
• 3 8 ounce packages mushrooms, any kind

Directions:

1. Heat coconut and sesame oil in a large skillet and add breaded chicken chunks, frying until golden brown.
2. Remove chicken to a plate with paper towels to drain.
3. Using the same skillet, add garlic and ginger and saute for 1 minute to flavor oil, then add green beans and cook for 3-4 minutes.
4. Next add mushrooms and cook for 5-6 minutes longer.
5. Add vinegar and soy sauce and stir to coat veggies thoroughly.
6. Return chicken to the skillet and stir to coat.

Tip

Try a flavored balsamic vinegar for extra zing.  I substituted out half the balsamic vinegar with tangy fig balsamic vinegar (YUM!).  This recipe can be served over mashed cauliflower, spaghetti squash, rice or quinoa.
