SERVES 6

• 2 Tbsp avocado or olive oil, divided
• 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
• 1 red onion, sliced thinly
• 2 cubes frozen garlic
• 1 cube frozen ginger
• 1 cube frozen parsley
• 1 red pepper, sliced into thin strips
• 1 yellow pepper, sliced into thin strips
• 10 baby bella mushrooms, cut in half
• 2 cups fresh baby spinach
• 2 cups fresh kale
• 2 Tbsp teriyaki coconut aminos or teriyaki sauce
• 1 Tbsp orange juice
• 1 Tbsp honey (optional)
• salt and pepper, to taste
• 2 lbs (1 kg) boneless chicken cutlets, cut into 1-inch (2-cm) cubes
• 1 tsp sesame seeds (optional)

Heat a frying pan over medium heat. Add 1 Tbsp of avocado oil and the toasted sesame oil, the onions, and a sprinkle of salt, and sauté for about 3 minutes or until onions are softened. Add the garlic, ginger, and parsley. Sauté for 1 minute until just fragrant.

Add the peppers and mushrooms and cook for another 3 minutes. Add the greens along with teriyaki, orange juice, and honey. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Sauté for about 5 minutes until all the vegetables are just cooked through but still firm.

Transfer the vegetables to a large bowl. Add the remaining 1 Tbsp oil to your pan and sauté the chicken cubes over medium-high heat until they’re no longer pink in the center.
