2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, trimmed and cut
into 1” strips
1 cup sliced crimini mushrooms
1 cup diagonally sliced carrots, ¼” thick
1 cup diagonally sliced red bell pepper, ¼” thick
½ cup diagonally sliced onion, ¼” thick

METHOD

My Lovely Indoor-Grown Meyer Lemons |
Juice the meyer lemon and whisk 3 tablespoons of juice with
broth, soy sauce, honey, and cornstarch in a small bowl.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add
chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until just cooked through, 4 to 5
minutes. Transfer to a plate with tongs.
Add carrots to pan and saute for 1 minute. Add mushrooms, and bell pepper, and onions
to the pan and saute until tender, about 5 minutes. Add garlic, reserved lemon
zest, pepper, and reserved chicken and accumulated juices; saute, until fragrant
for about 1 minute.
Whisk the broth mixture, and add to pan; stirring, until
thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve
stir-fry over brown steamed rice, and sprinkle with parsley. Enjoy!
