Stir-Fried Chicken with Lemongrass and Garlic

This recipe is one of my easy healthy chicken recipes created to make a quick meal. All the ingredients are probably in your kitchen. It is tastier if using chicken legs or thighs, but I rather use the low-fat chicken breast fillets. Here is the healthy and delicious meal.

Ingredients:
1 lb. chicken breast fillets, sliced
Spices:
1 tbs peanut oil
1 tbs chopped lemongrass
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 tsp fresh chopped ginger
1 red onion cut into thick slices
Stir-fry sauce ingredients:
1/4cup water
1 tbs soy sauce
1 tbs fish sauce
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp cayenne
2 tbs honey
1 tbs blackstrap molasses
1 tbs sugar
 
Garnish with 1 cup chopped green onions

Directions:
Combine all the stir-fry sauce ingredients in a bowl and mix well.
In a large sauté pan, add oil and heat until hot. Stir in red onions, lemongrass, garlic, and ginger. Stir and cook until fragrant (about 1 minute).

Add chicken and cook for 4 minutes or until golden brown.



 Add the stir-fry sauce. Stir and cook.



 Turn the heat to medium and continue to cook until the sauce is absorbed (about 30 to 40 minutes). Adjust the seasoning at this point with more fish sauce.


 Add the green onions, make a quick stir, and the chicken is ready to serve.
