Prep Time40 minsCook Time15 minsTotal Time55 mins
Ingredients
 2 dashes Chicken
 2 Soy sauce
 2 Honey
 Juice of a lime
 2 cloves Minced garlic
 1 small red chili, seeded and finely chopped (optional)
 2 Vegetable oil
 1 Onion, sliced
 1 Red pepper, sliced thinly
 1 Carrot, cut into thin slices.
 Some fresh coriander leaves, for garnish.
 Salt and pepper, to taste.
Directions
1

In a bowl, mix the soy sauce, honey, fish sauce, lime juice, garlic, and red chili (if you like spicy dishes). Set this marinade aside.

2

Cut the chicken fillets into medium-sized pieces and place them in the marinade. Make sure the chicken pieces are well coated with marinade. Let them marinate for about 15 to 20 minutes.

3

Meanwhile, heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and sauté until it is translucent.

4

Then add the slices of red bell pepper and carrot to the pan. Sauté the vegetables for a few minutes until they are slightly tender but still crunchy. Remove the vegetables from the pan and set aside.

5

In the same pan, add the marinated chicken pieces (reserving the remaining marinade) and cook for about 6 to 8 minutes, or until they are fully cooked and lightly browned. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

6

Reintroduce the vegetables into the pan with the chicken and pour in the remaining marinade. Sauté everything for another 2 to 3 minutes to blend the flavors and warm the vegetables.

7

To finish, remove from heat and serve the express Vietnamese chicken hot, garnished with fresh coriander leaves. You can accompany it with basmati rice or rice noodles for a complete meal.
