Ingredients

Instructions

Heat a large skillet or black top griddle to medium-high heat and drizzle with 1 tablespoon vegetable oil.
Add the sliced chicken thighs, season lightly with salt and pepper, and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through. Transfer to a plate and cover loosely.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the pan. Add the sliced red bell pepper and snap peas. Stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until vegetables are crisp-tender.
Return the chicken to the pan.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce and lime juice. Pour over the chicken and vegetables, tossing well to coat for 1-2 minutes.
Remove from heat and serve hot over cooked jasmine rice.
