1 tbsp orange zest
2 tbsp honey
1 tbsp rice vinegar
1 tsp toasted sesame oil

For thickening, use about 1 1/3 times as much tapioca flour, stirred into a spoonful of cold water first; take the pan off the heat soon after it thickens.
½ tsp red pepper flakes

For the stir-fry

1.5 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, thinly sliced against the grain
2 tbsp cornstarch
Chef's tip
For thickening, use about 1 1/3 times as much tapioca flour, stirred into a spoonful of cold water first; take the pan off the heat soon after it thickens.
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper
3 tbsp neutral oil (such as avocado oil or canola oil), divided
Chef's tip
Avocado oil is neutral and handles high heat, making it a good all-purpose swap.
1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
2 cups broccoli florets
1 tbsp fresh ginger, finely grated
3 scallions (green tops only), thinly sliced

For serving

4 cups cooked white rice, for serving
