Chicken breasts, tenderloins, or boneless thighs
Sesame oil
Garlic
Ginger
Non-starchy veggies such as pea pods, baby corn, broccoli, celery, and green onion
Soy sauce
Glucomannan or xanthan gum

Steps:

Cut up 2 lbs. boneless and skinless chicken breasts, tenderloins, or boneless thighs into chunks and set aside. Heat 2 Tbs. coconut oil and 1 Tbs. sesame oil in a large skillet over medium/high temperature. Add 2-3 cloves minced garlic and 2 Tbs. fresh minced ginger to oil. Cook garlic and ginger for about 1 minute. Add chicken chunks and cook 4-5 minutes, stirring constantly as they brown. Remove chicken and keep warm. Add 2 more Tbs. sesame oil to skillet and add following vegetables: 3 cups of pea pods, 2 drained 15 oz. cans of baby corn, 4 cups of broccoli florets, 2 cups of loosely cut celery, and one bunch of cut green onions. Stir fry veggies for 2-3 minutes. Add 1⁄3 cup Soy/Tamari sauce. In a separate bowl, whisk in 1⁄2 tsp. glucomannan or xanthan into 2 cups of chicken broth by sprinkling it from a salt shaker to prevent clumping. Add to skillet with other ingredients and cook a few minutes more until vegetables are still crisp tender and sauce is thickened. Return chicken to skillet to warm up shortly before serving.
