Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 4 cups broccoli florets
- 0.25 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 0.25 cup chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
- 0.5 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips and season with salt and black pepper.
In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, chicken broth, and cornstarch until smooth. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken to the skillet and cook for 4–5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked and lightly browned. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet. Stir in the minced garlic, grated ginger, and red pepper flakes. Cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the broccoli florets to the skillet and stir-fry for 3–4 minutes until they are bright green and crisp-tender.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and toss to combine with the broccoli.
Pour the prepared sauce over the chicken and broccoli. Stir well to coat all the ingredients evenly.
Cook for another 2–3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and everything to heat through.
Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles.
