1/3 cup low sodium soy sauce
1/3 cup rice vinegar
4 tablespoons sesame oil
1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts or thighs, cut in to 2-3 inch pieces
1 inch fresh ginger, thinly sliced
3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon chili flakes
1 zucchini, chopped
1 bell pepper, sliced
1 cup fresh basil
rice for serving

1. In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, rice vinegar, and 2 tablespoons sesame oil.
2. Heat a large skillet over medium high heat and add the remaining 2 tablespoons sesame oil. When the oil shimmers, add the chicken and cook, stirring occasionally until the chicken is cooked through, about 8-10 minutes. Add the ginger and garlic, and cook another minute more.
3. Pour in the soy sauce/rice vinegar mixture and toss in the zucchini and bell pepper. Cook until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken, about 5-10 minutes.
4. Remove the skillet from the stove and stir in the basil. Serve over rice. Enjoy!
