Sesame Stir Fry

This is a family favorite! It's also a quick meal to fix after working all day.

Ingredients:
3 ckn breasts cut into pieces or you can use steak
1/2 c Bragg's Liquid Aminos
3 packets Truvia or Stevia or 3 T sugar
1/2-1 c chicken broth, divided
2 t arrowroot or tapioca starch or corn starch
3 T Sesame oil, divided
1 whole medium onion
1 whole red or orange bell pepper, cut into chunks
2 medium zucchini, sliced in circles or sticks
or 2 cups snow peas or yellow squash or whatever veggies you want
2 cloves garlic
1 t rice vinegar
1/4 c roughly chopped cilantro
1 t Sesame seeds, optional

Directions:
Wash and prepare vegetables. Mix 1/2 c Bragg's with Truvia. Stir together and set aside. Mix 1/4 c chicken broth with arrowroot. Stir together and set aside. Measure an additional 1/4 c chicken broth set aside. 

Heat skillet or wok over high heat. When it's hot, drizzle in 1T sesame oil. Add meat to skillet and fry quickly, stirring as it cooks. When brown and just cooked through, remove to a separate bowl. 

Add an additional 1T of sesame oil. Throw in onions and cook for 1 minute. Add bell pepper and garlic and zucchini. Cook and stir until soft. 

Pour in 1/4 c chicken broth and Bragg's/Truvia mixture. Drizzle in 1 t rice vinegar and 1/2 t sesame oil. Dump in cooked chicken and sesame seeds and stir together. Pour in chicken broth/starch mixture and stir. Sauce should be thick. Turn off heat and serve over rice or quinoa. (my husband likes a lot of sauce, so I use 1 cup of chicken broth)
