HONEY SOY SAUCE CHICKEN BREAST STIR FRY


I love stir fries, especially chicken stir fries. Yesterday I looked inside my fridge and saw some left over uncooked chicken breasts. Immediately I started thinking of what to make and the idea of a chicken stir fry popped into my mind. I have made two chicken curries before so I wanted something different, delicious yet unique. So I began to rack my brain about what combinations I would use. I love how this honey soy sauce combo just turned out to be delicious! Honey gives the chicken a smooth sweetness, soy sauce gives the chicken a salty tartness that balances out well with the honey. Spices added complete this awesome chicken stir fry! This will definitely be my stand out dish this year. Why not try it and let me know if you will be having stir fry chicken breasts any other way.
