1
Place the spiralized zucchini into a colander set over a large bowl and sprinkle with a pinch of salt.
2
Let sit, stirring occasionally, so that the zucchini releases some of its water.
3
In a large pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat and add in the chicken breast and fresh ginger.
4
Cook, stirring frequently, until the chicken is golden brown, about 5 minutes.
5
Reduce the heat to medium and in asparagus, peas and red pepper.
6
Cook until the veggies are tender-crisp, about 3 minutes.
7
Add orange juice, almond butter, Dijon mustard, honey and a good pinch of salt and pepper into the pan and stir until the almond butter is smooth and melted.
8
Turn the heat up to medium high and boil, uncovered, until the sauce reduces by half and is very thick and creamy, about 810 minutes.
9
Squeeze out the excess moisture from the zucchini noodles and divide between bowls.
10
Divide the veggie/chicken mixture on top, followed by the spiralized radishes and oranges.
11
Garnish with sliced basil, adjust salt and pepper to taste and devour.

Note: If you leave the honey off for the Whole30 option, you may need to squeeze a little more fresh orange juice over the stir fry/zucchini noodles once its plated, if you want a little more sweetness.
