Low-FODMAP Chicken Stir-Fry
Gut-friendly stir-fry with chicken, bell pepper, and bok choy.
About This Recipe
This stir-fry is designed for sensitive stomachs — tender chicken strips quickly wok-tossed with low-FODMAP vegetables like bell pepper, bok choy, and carrot in a garlic-infused oil (without the garlic pieces), finished with soy sauce and ginger. All the flavour of a classic stir-fry, none of the digestive distress.
