Lemongrass Honey Chicken
Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 pounds chicken thighs, cut into thin strips
  • 3 tablespoons fish sauce, or more to taste
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 1/2 red bell peppers, cut into strips
  • 1/4 cup chopped lemongrass
  • 1/4 cup grated fresh ginger root
  • 4 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 1/3 cup chopped green onions
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes, or more to taste
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
1
Combine the chicken, fish sauce, and honey in a bowl; cover it with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
2
Heat a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat; swirl in oil to coat the surface. Add sliced red bell peppers, lemongrass, ginger, and minced garlic; cook until the red bell pepper strips are tender and slightly caramelized, about 5 minutes.
3
Add the marinated chicken mixture to the wok; stir-fry until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink, and the juices run clear, about 5 minutes.
4
Stir in chopped green onions, chicken broth, sugar, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper; continue to cook, uncovered, until the sauce thickens and reduces slightly, about 5 minutes.
