Teriyaki Chicken and Asparagus Stir-Fry is a popular dish in Japanese cuisine that combines marinated chicken and fresh asparagus with a sweet and savory teriyaki sauce.
Slice the chicken breasts into strips and place them in a large bowl. Season with salt, black pepper, and cornstarch, then mix well to coat evenly.
Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over medium heat.
Add the chicken to the pan and cook for about 4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Toss in the garlic and asparagus. Stir, cover, and cook for 5 minutes, allowing the asparagus to become tender yet crisp.
While the chicken and asparagus cook, prepare the sauce. Whisk together 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 2 tablespoons of water, 1 tablespoon of rice vinegar, 1 teaspoon of honey, and 1 teaspoon of brown sugar in a small bowl. Set aside.
Add the green onions to the wok, followed by the prepared sauce. Stir to coat the chicken and asparagus evenly. Continue cooking for 2 minutes until the sauce thickens.
Serve your Teriyaki Chicken and Asparagus Stir-Fry over rice or noodles for a satisfying meal.
