A delicious and easy Asian peanut chicken stir fry recipe, perfect for any meal! Keto, low-carb, gluten-free, grain-free, dairy-free.
This tasty Asian peanut chicken stir fry starts with a delicious Asian Peanut Sauce which will take you less than 5 minutes to make! It is super smooth, tangy and delectable.
It pairs perfectly with any vegetables for a fantastic stir fry! My favorite vegetable combinations with this sauce are carrots and broccoli or carrots and bok choy. The subtle flavors of these vegetables go so well with the flavorful peanut sauce.
The vegetables are so easy for this Asian peanut chicken stir fry, all you need to do is steam them until they are soft. If you use carrots, I recommend softening them first, and then about half way done, add in your broccoli or bok choy, and continue to steam until everything is to your liking.
While the veggies are simmering, you can cook up your chicken in a separate pan. When everything is done, you simply add it all together and BAM, dinner! Done. Easy peasy 🙂
