Instructions

Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. Add the olive oil to a skillet and heat over medium high heat. Add chicken and cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Reduce heat to medium low. Add red bell pepper, zucchini, broccoli florets and cashew nuts.
In the meantime, combine all the ingredients for the sauce in a bowl. Pour the sauce into the pan. Cook until vegetables are crisp tender, mixing frequently. And voilà!
Bon appétit !

Notes

Starch : If you are on a paleo diet use either arrowroot or tapioca starch. Both are paleo compliant. If you are not on a paleo diet, you can use either corn starch or potato starch. If you can't tolerate any of those starches, you can omit the starch completely. The starch is a thickener for the sauce. It doesn't alter the taste.
