Steps

Whisk the chicken broth, honey, Dijon mustard, balsamic vinegar, tapioca starch, and soy sauce in a bowl.
Heat the olive oil in a large 12-inch skillet over medium heat and toast the almonds for 2 minutes, then set them aside.
Add the garlic and chicken to the skillet and cook for 6 to 8 minutes, stirring, until the chicken reaches 165 F.
Add the zucchini and asparagus and cook for 4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Pour in the broth mixture, stir, and simmer for 3 to 5 minutes until the sauce thickens and the vegetables are tender.
