Difficulty: easy Prep Time: Fifteen Minutes Total Time: Under an hour

1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil/coconut oil
2 chicken breasts (boneless, skinless), sliced thinly
2 tbsp cornstarch
1 small carrot, sliced thinly
1 celery stalk, sliced thinly
1/2 green pepper, large dice
12 snow peas, ends trimmed
1 med. onion, sliced 1/4" thick

Sauce:
1 cup orange juice
1 tbsp oyster sauce
3 tsp brown sugar
3 tbsp hoisin sauce
2 tbsp rice wine vinegar
1 tsp minced garlic
1 1/2 tsp orange zest
1 1/2 tbsp cornstarch

Heat oil over high heat. Coat chicken in cornstarch. Sauté quickly in hot oil so as to evenly, lightly brown the meat. Working in order of hardest to softest vegetables, add each to the pan and sauté momentarily before adding another. Mix together sauce ingredients in a bowl. Add to hot pan and shake/stir vigorously to allow sauce to thicken evenly, as this will happen quickly. Add water if it’s too thick. Serve with your choice of rice/noodles/couscous/quinoa. Serves 2.
