Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Chicken breast
- 2 cups Snow peas
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Ginger
- 1 Red bell pepper
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
- 2 cups Cooked white rice (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Slice the chicken breast into thin strips and season lightly with salt and pepper. Set aside.
Trim the ends of the snow peas and thinly slice the red bell pepper. Mince the garlic and grate the ginger.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, honey, 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 strips to the skillet and cook until they are golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside.
Add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet. Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the snow peas and red bell pepper to the skillet, and stir fry for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are tender but crisp.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet. Pour the sauce into the pan, and stir to coat everything evenly. Let the sauce cook for 1-2 minutes until it thickens slightly.
Remove from heat and garnish with sesame seeds, if desired.
Serve hot over cooked white rice or enjoy on its own.
