Instructions
- Step 1: Heat 1/2 tsp sesame oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering (about 1 minute), then add 4 oz diced chicken breast; cook for 5 minutes, flipping once, until golden brown and cooked through with no pink inside.
- Step 2: Add 1/2 cup diced sweet potato and 1/2 cup broccoli florets to the skillet; stir-fry for 6 minutes until sweet potato is tender when pierced with a fork, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Step 3: Stir in 1 tsp minced ginger, 1 tbsp tamari, and 1/4 tsp sesame seeds; cook for 2 minutes more until the sauce thickens slightly and coats the vegetables evenly, then serve immediately for sustained energy during cardio activities.
