Honey Ginger Chicken Stir Fry

I love easy, skillet dishes. They don't heat up your house too much or take up very much time. There's just one big pan to clean up afterwards, and the vegetables don't seem to get noticed as much by picky eaters.

This is one of my favorite one-pan wonders, and you can customize it to include the vegetables you like, and leave out the ones you don't. You can serve it over brown rice or salad greens, if you like, but we just eat it as-is for a delicious, grainless supper.

Honey Ginger Chicken Stir Fry
(adapted from Taste of Home's Simple & Delicious)
Ingredients:
1/4 cup honey
3-4 tsp. tamari
1 and 1/2 tsp. lemon juice
1 tsp. ground ginger
1 and 1/4 lb. boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into short strips
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
1-3 Tbsp. coconut oil
24 ounces frozen vegetables

Directions:
Combine the honey, tamari, lemon juice, and ginger in a small bowl and set aside. Slice the chicken and sprinkle it with salt and pepper. Melt the coconut oil in a large skillet, then stir fry the chicken until slightly browned. Add the vegetables and continue to stir fry until the vegetables are crisp tender. Stir the honey mixture, then pour it over the chicken and vegetables, and continue to stir fry until vegetables reach the desired tenderness and everything is heated through.
