Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 lb asparagus
- 3 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp oyster sauce
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1 tsp cornstarch
- 3 tbsp water
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 4 cloves garlic
- 1 tsp ginger
- 0.25 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
Instructions
Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips and season with salt and black pepper. Set aside.
Wash the asparagus and trim off the tough ends. Cut the asparagus into 2-inch pieces.
In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, honey, cornstarch, and water until smooth. Set the sauce aside.
Mince the garlic and grate the ginger.
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.
Add the chicken strips to the skillet and stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until 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, followed by the minced garlic and grated ginger. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the asparagus to the skillet and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until tender-crisp.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and pour the prepared sauce over the mixture.
Stir-fry everything together for an additional 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken and asparagus evenly.
Remove from heat and serve immediately with steamed rice or noodles.
