This Paleo Chicken Stir-Fry with Coconut Aminos is a quick and easy weeknight meal that's packed with flavor. The chicken is marinated in a flavorful blend of coconut aminos, ginger, garlic, and black pepper, then stir-fried with broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, and onion.

The inspiration for this recipe came to me one night when I was trying to figure out what to make for dinner. I had some chicken breasts in the fridge, and I wanted to make something that was both healthy and flavorful. I started to think about what kind of flavors I liked, and I came up with the idea of using coconut aminos, ginger, garlic, and black pepper. I also wanted to add some vegetables to the stir-fry, so I chose broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, and onion. The result was a delicious and satisfying dish that I've been making ever since.
