Ingredients
½ small head green cabbage (for “noodles”), or 2 (200g/7 oz) keto noodles
4 tsp Swerve confectioners’-style sweetener
3 tbsp unseasoned rice vinegar, divided
2 tbsp wheat-free tamari, or ½ cup coconut aminos, divided
16oz (454g) boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into ½-inch pieces
2 ¼ cups chicken bone broth
1 tbsp toasted (dark) sesame oil
½ tsp ground black pepper
½ tsp guar gum (optional, for thickening)
2 tbsp coconut oil, divided
2 tbsp grated fresh ginger
1 clove garlic, minced
227g (8oz) button mushrooms, stemmed and sliced
6 scallions, sliced diagonally into ½-inch pieces
½ red bell pepper, sliced
Directions
- If using cabbage, shred it thinly and set aside.
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine 2 tsp sweetener, 1 1/2 tbsp vinegar, and 1 tbsp tamari (or 1/4 cup coconut aminos) until well combined. Toss the chicken in the bowl to coat completely. Cover the bowl and place it in the refrigerator for 1 hour or overnight to marinate.
- Make the sauce:
In a separate medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the broth, sesame oil, and pepper with the remaining 2tsp sweetener, 1 1/2 tbsp vinegar, and tbsp tamari (or 1/4 cup coconut aminos). If using, sift in the guar gum and whisk until well combined. Set aside the sauce. - Heat 1 tbsp coconut oil in a wok or large cast-iron skillet over high heat when you’re ready to cook the chicken. Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard it. Stir-fry the chicken in the wok for 4 minutes, or until it is golden brown. Place the chicken, along with any juices, on a plate.
- In the wok or skillet, heat the remaining 1 tbsp coconut oil. If using cabbage, stir-fry it now with the ginger, garlic, mushrooms, scallions, and bell pepper for 5 to 10 minutes, depending on how soft you want the cabbage. Then add the chicken and the reserved sauce. Reduce the heat to low and continue to cook for 2 minutes, or until the sauce thickens slightly. If using Miracle Noodles, rinse and drain them before adding them to the wok; toss to coat thoroughly and heat through, about 1 minute.
- Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to four days. To reheat, heat for about 5 minutes in a lightly greased skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
