Ingredients

Curry powder brings a little color and a lot of flavor to an otherwise simple stir-fry for a quick dinner that can be modified to use up whatever bits of veggies you have in the fridge. Serve hot over your favorite whole grain, such as brown rice or quinoa.
2 tsp. curry powder
1/2 tsp. oregano
1 Tbsp. cornstarch
1/2 tsp. salt
1 lb. boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed
1 1/2 Tbsp. canola oil, divided
2 bell peppers, coarsely chopped
2 large carrots, thickly sliced
1 red onion, coarsely chopped
5 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper, or to taste
2 tsp. lime juice
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh mint
