Sesame Chicken Keto Stir Fry. Original recipe adapted with source quantities and workflow.

Follow the cooking flow and check each component at the stated endpoint.

## Ingredients

- ¼ cup gluten free soy sauce

- 1 tbsp rice vinegar

- 2 tbsp brown sugar swerve — or other keto friendly sweetener

- 2 tbsp sesame oil

- 2 tsp minced garlic

- 1 tbsp olive oil or sesame oil for frying

- 1 ½ lb chicken — thinly sliced

- 1 count medium size zucchini — sliced

- to taste salt and pepper to taste. Source does not state an amount; measure to taste or as needed.

- 2 tbsp cashews — chopped

- 2 tbsp green onions — chopped

## Equipment

- Lidded skillet

- Mixing bowl

- Instant-read thermometer

## Cook

Prepare cold sides first. Keep raw-poultry tools separate; use clean serving utensils. Probe more than one thick piece. A timer is not a doneness test.

1. **Sauce.** Whisk soy sauce, rice vinegar, sweetener, sesame oil and garlic together.

2. **Stir-fry.** Heat the frying oil in a skillet over medium. Season chicken to taste and brown it for 5–6 minutes. Stir in zucchini and cook another 2–3 minutes.

3. **Simmer.** Coat the contents with the prepared sauce. Cover and simmer over low heat for 10 minutes. Add the listed chopped cashews and green onions when serving.

## Attention timeline

Stages can overlap; endpoints and appliance behavior override the estimate.

## Flavor and capacity

## Nutrition per serving

Calories: 285 kcal; protein: 40.6 g; total carbs: 2.1 g; fiber: 0.3 g; net carbs: 1.8 g

Publisher estimate per original portion; proportional ingredient scaling preserves that portion.

Known allergens for these plates: sesame, soy, tree nuts. Check product labels and cross-contact.

## First-cook checks and limits

- The publisher lists cashews and green onions without saying when to add them; this adaptation uses them as serving garnishes.

- Ingredient quantities are scaled from 4 original portions to four portions. Fractions of whole items may need weighing or dividing after preparation. Larger batches need extra cooking space or batches; keep thickness and endpoint checks.

- Adapted from Annie Holmes. This adaptation has not been kitchen-tested.

- Safe doneness checks are added to the publisher method; timers alone do not establish doneness.

## Leftovers

Refrigerate in shallow containers within two hours, or one hour above 90°F. Use within 3–4 days or freeze; reheat to 165°F. Keep cold greens and yogurt separate.
