Ingredients
Sauce
-
¼ cup lime juice
-
¼ cup orange juice
-
¼ cup finely chopped cilantro
-
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
-
2 teaspoons cornstarch
-
¾ teaspoon salt
-
½ teaspoon cumin
-
½ teaspoon oregano
-
½ teaspoon ground pepper
Stir-Fry
-
3 tablespoons peanut oil or canola oil, divided
-
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
-
3 cups 1/2- to 1-inch carrot slices
-
1 bunch scallions, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
-
3 cloves garlic, minced
-
3 cups snow peas, trimmed
Directions
-
To prepare sauce: Combine lime juice, orange juice, cilantro, olive oil, cornstarch, salt, cumin, oregano and pepper in a small bowl. Place near the stove.
-
To prepare stir-fry: Heat a 14-inch flat-bottom carbon-steel wok over high heat. (You'll know it's hot enough when a bead of water vaporizes within 1 to 2 seconds of contact.) Add 1 tablespoon oil and swirl to coat. Add chicken and stir-fry until just cooked, 2 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a large plate.
-
Swirl in another 1 tablespoon oil; add carrots and scallions. Stir-fry for 2 minutes.
-
Swirl in the remaining 1 tablespoon oil; add garlic and snow peas. Stir-fry until the vegetables are tender, 2 to 4 minutes more.
-
Return the chicken to the wok. Add the reserved sauce and cook, gently stirring, until well coated and hot, 1 to 2 minutes.
Tips
Make Ahead Tip: Refrigerate the sauce (Step 1) for up to 3 days.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.
* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
