This delicious Chinese-style chicken stir-fry features juicy chicken breast cubes and vegetables that are tender-yet-crisp. Yes, the list of ingredients is kind of long, but most of the work here is gathering and prepping the ingredients – the cooking part is very fast.
Feel free to use any vegetables you like (as you can see in the photo above, tonight I used a carrot instead of one of the bell peppers because this is what I had in the fridge), but do use fresh ginger – it makes a big difference in this recipe.

Ingredients
2 tablespoons light olive oil
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh ginger
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1/2 cup thinly sliced green onions, white and green parts
1 pound boneless skinless chicken breast, cubed into 1-inch cubes
1 green bell pepper, cubed

2 tablespoons dry white wine
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon honey
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
2 teaspoons sesame oil

Directions
1. In a wok, or in a wide, deep skillet, heat canola oil over medium heat, about 3 minutes. Add the ginger, the garlic and the onions and cook, stirring, 2 minutes.
