Ingredients

  • 12 oz boneless skinless chicken thighs or boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3/4 tsp dried thyme
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 4 cups Brussels sprouts, halved
  • 3/4 cup chicken stock
  • 1 sweet red pepper, sliced
  • 1 can (8 oz/227 mL)  sliced water chestnuts
  • 2 tsp cornstarch

Preparation

Trim any fat from chicken; cut into cubes. In large deep skillet or wok, heat oil over medium-high heat; brown chicken. Transfer to plate. Drain off fat in pan.

Fry onion, garlic, thyme, salt and pepper over medium heat until softened, about 3 minutes.

Add brussels sprouts, stock, red pepper, water chestnuts and chicken and any accumulated juices; bring to boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer until juices run clear when chicken is pierced and brussels sprouts are tender-crisp, about 8 minutes, cooking longer for softer sprouts.

Whisk cornstarch with 1 tbsp (15 mL) water; stir into skillet and simmer, stirring, until thickened, about 1 minute.
