Ingredients  

2 tbsp Oil, sesame (divided)
12 oz. Chicken breast, skinless, diced
2 Carrot (julienned)
4 Zucchini (spiralized into noodles)
2 heads Bok Choy (baby)
1 Red bell pepper (sliced)
1 cup Mushrooms, White Button (sliced) 2 Scallions (diced)
4 tbsp Coconut aminos
2 tbsp Vinegar, rice
1 tbsp Ginger (minced)
1 tsp Almond Butter
2 tbsp Sesame seeds
2 cup Bean sprouts

Instructions  

In a large skillet, add 1 tablespoon of the sesame oil over medium heat. Add chicken and cook until no longer pink, about 4-5 minutes each side. Remove from pan and set aside.

Add the remaining tablespoon of sesame oil to the same pan. Add carrots and sauté until beginning to get tender, about 3 minutes. Add zucchini, bok choy, bell pepper, and mushrooms and cook for an additional 5 minutes.

While sautéing, whisk the coconut aminos, rice wine vinegar, ginger and almond butter in a small bowl. Pour the sauce into the skillet, stir to combine and reduce the heat to low.

Add the bean sprouts, scallions, and cooked chicken. Stir to combine. Divide among 4 bowls and garnish with sesame seeds. Serve with rice or cauliflower rice.
