Ingredients:
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
- 1/4 cup orange juice (no sugar added)
- 1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce or coconut aminos
- 1 tablespoon granulated erythritol or your preferred keto-friendly sweetener
- Zest of 1 orange
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Chopped green onions and sesame seeds for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
- Heat coconut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add chicken pieces to the skillet and cook until browned and cooked through. Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add minced garlic and grated ginger. Sauté for about a minute until fragrant.
- Reduce heat to medium-low and add orange juice, soy sauce (or coconut aminos), sweetener, orange zest, and red pepper flakes (if using). Stir well to combine.
- Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and toss to coat it evenly with the orange sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.
- Serve hot and enjoy!
