Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 3 cups broccoli florets
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 0.25 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons water
- 3 pieces garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced
- 1 piece red bell pepper, sliced
- 2 pieces green onions, sliced
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 0.5 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, mix soy sauce, oyster sauce, honey, cornstarch, and water until smooth.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken strips to the skillet and stir fry until they are cooked through and golden, about 5-7 minutes. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil.
Add the minced garlic and ginger to the skillet and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the broccoli florets and red bell pepper slices into the skillet. Stir fry for about 3-4 minutes, until the broccoli is tender-crisp.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet. Stir the sauce and pour it over the chicken and vegetables.
Cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens and evenly coats the chicken and vegetables, about 2 minutes.
Remove the skillet from heat and stir in sliced green onions and sesame oil.
Serve the chicken and broccoli stir fry hot over steamed rice or noodles, if desired.
