Prep Time: 10 minutes Cooking Time: 15 minute Total Time: 25 minutes Difficulty Level: Easy Recipe Makes: 4 Servings
- 3 tablespoons avocado oil
- 1 pound chicken breast cubed
- 5 green onions cut into 1" pieces
– 2 Thai chilies thinly sliced
- 1 clove garlic minced
- ½ tablespoon minced fresh ginger
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- ⅓ cup tamari
1. Heat the oil in a 10” or larger cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add in the chicken and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.
2. Add the green onions, sliced chilies, ginger, garlic, and red pepper flakes to the pan. Stir fry for 2 minutes, then add in the tamari, erythritol, and vinegar.
3. Cook until reduced and slightly thick, about 4 minutes. Top with crushed peanuts or cashews and serve.
To achieve maximum flavor, marinate the chicken in a mixture of tamari, ginger, garlic, and red pepper flakes for 15-30 minutes before cooking. This will infuse the meat with delicious Asian food-inspired flavors and make your gluten-free Kung Pao Chicken even more satisfying.
