Instructions
In a big bowl, toss chicken with tamari, sesame oil, Sriracha, garlic powder, and ginger powder. Make sure every piece is coated. Marinate about 10 minutes or a bit more if you got time.
Heat 1 tablespoon avocado oil in a skillet on medium-high heat. It’s gotta be nice and hot before you add anything.
Add the chicken pieces, spread ’em out, don’t crowd. Cook 8 to 10 minutes, flipping now and then, until browned and cooked through that tender pull you want.
While chicken cooks, slice zucchini into thin rounds or half moons. Keep ’em ready to jump in next.
Remove cooked chicken from the pan, set aside on a plate. Don’t skip this step; you want the zucchini to cook right in those chicken bits’ flavors.
Add remaining 1 tablespoon avocado oil to skillet, then toss zucchini in. Sauté about 3 to 5 minutes, just ‘til zucchini is tender but still got crunch.
Return chicken to pan, sprinkle glucomannan on top and stir everything together. Season with salt and pepper as you like.
Let it cook another 2 to 3 minutes. Watch sauce thicken up nice and silky, then serve warm with some extra Sriracha if you’re feeling spicy.
