I’m always amazed with how easy it is to replicate incredible Chinese food at home and this recipe doesn’t disappoint. It’s also low-carb as we don’t include the noodles, just keeping the protein, veggies and incredible flavour.
Ingredients for Keto Marinated Chicken Stir Fry Recipe
This recipe includes some of my favourite stir-fry veggies – broccoli, red peppers and mushrooms. These work great with the chicken to create a delicious low-carb dinner or lunch.
You will need:
- chicken breast
- garlic
- soy sauce
- olive oil
- cider vinegar
- onion
- broccoli
- red pepper
- closed cup mushrooms
- sesame oil
As always, using the highest quality ingredients is super important. With a simple recipe like this Keto Lemon Curd Cake, the quality of the ingredients is what makes it delicious.
Substitutions and Ingredient tips
- Make sure you prepare all your ingredients before cooking as this dish comes together very quickly.
- You can feel free to add in other Keto veggies that you enjoy!
- Chop your veggies to an even size, they will cook better.
- I recommend using fresh veggies over frozen, you can’t match the taste with frozen veggies. If you’re struggling getting fresh veggies because of seasonal availability though, frozen is better than nothing!
Tips for making Keto Marinated Chicken Stir Fry Recipe
First off, prepare your ingredients. Take your chicken and dice it ready for the marinade, cut the broccoli into florets, evenly chop up your mushrooms and repeat with the bell pepper and finely crush the garlic.
Now you have everything prepared, in a mixing bowl, combine the soy sauce, garlic and cider vinegar to create the marinade. Place the chicken in the marinade and put in the fridge for around thirty minutes. Whilst the chicken is in the refrigerator, start to cook the veggies.
In a large wok, add the olive oil and place on a medium heat.
When hot, add the onions and cook for three to four minutes, then add the broccoli and red pepper and cook for a further three minutes.
Storage tips
- Fridge: It will keep well in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. To reheat it, warm it up in a wok for 3-4 minutes for the best results.
- Freezer: I don’t recommend freezing it because the veggies will not turn out well when reheating.
