2 tablespoons olive oil
2 pieces boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
1 salt & pepper
1 bunch broccoli, chopped into small florets, stem discarded
1/2 cup green onions, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds
3 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce or coconut aminos
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon sesame oil

Steps:

Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken breasts, and season with a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is browned and mostly cooked through.
For sauce, whisk together soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, honey, corn starch, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil.
Once the chicken is browned, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and broccoli, and stir to combine. Continue cooking for an additional 3 minutes, until the broccoli is bright green. Stir in the soy sauce mixture, and cook for an additional 1 minute until the sauce has thickened.
Remove from heat and serve immediately, garnished with green onions and toasted sesame seeds.
