Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tbsp peanut or coconut oil
  • 1 1/2 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast (cut into quarters)
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 onion (thinly sliced)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 2 tbsp fresh ginger (minced)
  • 1 can California cling peach slices (398 ml)
  • 1 tbsp honey

  • 1 tsp dried lemongrass
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 red bell pepper (thinly sliced)
  • 1/4 cup chopped peanuts

Instructions

  1. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken pieces with salt and sear until golden brown on each side, about three minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
  2. Lower heat to medium-low and add sliced onion; sauté until translucent (about three minutes). Add minced garlic and ginger, cooking for another two minutes until fragrant.
