Sriracha Chicken Snap Pea Stir-Fry
  1. 1

    Thinly slice the chicken breasts; cut the slices in half to make pieces about 1 1/2 to 2 inches across; place them in a bowl. Add the baking soda and toss to coat the chicken. Let stand for 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the chicken broth, soy sauce, vinegar, Sriracha, honey, and cornstarch. In a separate bowl, combine the snap peas, scallions, ginger, and garlic.

  3. 3

    Rinse the chicken thoroughly in a colander, then pat it dry.

  4. 4

    Heat 2 tablespoons canola oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and 1 to 2 splashes of the Sriracha-honey sauce; stir-fry until the chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 4 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate.

  5. 5

    Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the skillet; add the snap pea mixture. Cook until the snap peas are crisp yet tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Return the chicken to the skillet; add the remaining sauce. Cook and stir until the sauce thickens, about 4 minutes. Serve the stir-fry over rice.
