Prepare the Chicken: Begin by rolling the chicken breast fillets in the Chinese five spice powder until evenly coated. Heat a non-stick pan over medium-high heat and spray with cooking spray. Cook the chicken for about 5-7 minutes, or until browned and cooked through. Once done, remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside.

Sauté the Aromatics: In the same pan, add a little more cooking spray if necessary, and toss in the grated ginger, sesame seeds, and sliced shallots. Stir-fry these ingredients for approximately 2-3 minutes until fragrant and the shallots are slightly translucent.
-
Combine the Sauces: Next, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, and hoisin sauce in a small bowl. Pour this mixture into the pan with the sautéed aromatics, stirring well to combine.
-
Add the Snow Peas: Gently fold in the snow peas, cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes until they turn bright green and are tender-crisp.
-
Finish the Dish: Return the cooked chicken to the pan, tossing everything together until the chicken is heated through.
-
Serve: This stir-fry can be enjoyed on its own or served over a bed of noodles or rice for a heartier meal.
