Orange Chicken and Asparagus




This was a really quick and extremely flavorful dinner we made the other night. It took under 20 minutes, guilt free, and satisfying.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 4 oz of chicken sliced into strips
  • 1 minced garlic clove
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 2 cups chopped asparagus
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
  • juice and zest of 1 orange

Heat 1 tablespoon sesame oil in a large skillet over medium heat. 

Sauté 4 ounces chicken, sliced into 1/2-inch strips; 1 minced garlic clove; and 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes 7 minutes. 

Add 2 cups chopped asparagus and cook 3 minutes more. 

In a small bowl, whisk together 1 teaspoon soy sauce, 1 teaspoon honey, 1 teaspoon sesame seeds, and juice and zest of 1 orange. Add to skillet and cook 1 minute. 

Serve over rice.
