Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 1 bunch asparagus
- 1 large red bell pepper
- 1 large carrot
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons water
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 inch ginger
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 stalks green onions
- to taste salt and pepper
Instructions
Cut the chicken breast into thin strips and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and cut the spears into 2-inch pieces.
Slice the red bell pepper into thin strips and peel and julienne the carrot.
Mince the garlic and finely grate the ginger.
In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, honey, cornstarch, and water until smooth. Set aside.
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the chicken strips in a single layer and stir fry until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
Add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet, then stir fry the garlic and ginger for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the asparagus, bell pepper, and carrot to the pan. Stir fry the vegetables for 4-5 minutes, until they are tender but still crisp.
Return the chicken to the pan and toss everything together.
Pour the sauce into the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens and evenly coats the chicken and vegetables.
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper if necessary.
Slice the green onions and sprinkle them over the stir fry right before serving.
Serve hot with steamed rice or noodles, if desired.
