Recipe Notes
Expert Tips
- For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in a mixture of soy sauce, ginger, and garlic for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
- Adjust the amount of sweet chili sauce to your preferred level of spiciness. Start with less and add more to taste.
- Feel free to add other vegetables, such as bell peppers, onions, or broccoli, to the chicken stir-fry for added nutrition and flavor.
- If you prefer a creamier dish, stir in a tablespoon or two of heavy cream or coconut milk at the end.
