Lemon Chicken Stir-Fry

INGREDIENTS
1 pound chicken tenderloins, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
1 zucchini, sliced
6 ounces baby carrots (2 snack size bags), cut in half
1 bunch green onions, chopped
1 cup chicken broth
1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons soy sauce
4 teaspoons cornstarch
1 lemon
oil for stir-frying


RECIPE STEPS
1. Grate a teaspoon of lemon zest and set aside. 
2. Whisk together the juice from the lemon, chicken broth, soy sauce and cornstarch in a small bowl.
3. Heat about a tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

5. Add the carrots and zucchini to the skillet and cook until the vegetables are crisp-tender.
6. Whisk the broth mixture again and then add it to the pan and cook, stirring, until thickened.
7. Add the green onions and the chicken back to the skillet and cook until heated through.
