Instructions

  1. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned, about 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
  2. Add the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil to the skillet. Stir fry the broccoli, bell pepper, and onion until crisp-tender, about 4-5 minutes.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, chicken broth, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, ginger, and cornstarch to make the teriyaki sauce.
  4. Return the chicken to the skillet with the veggies. Add the garlic and cashews and cook for 1 minute. Pour in the teriyaki sauce, stirring well to coat. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until the sauce has thickened.
  5. Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds. Serve hot over steamed rice and enjoy!
