Slice the chicken breast into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick. Lightly season with salt and ground black pepper and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, oyster sauce, honey, sesame oil, and cornstarch. Add water and whisk until smooth. Set the sauce aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken strips and cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring frequently, until the chicken is browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet. Stir in the minced garlic and ginger, cooking for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Toss the broccoli florets into the skillet and stir-fry for 4-5 minutes, or until they are bright green and slightly tender yet still crisp.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the broccoli. Pour the prepared sauce over the chicken and broccoli.
Stir everything together for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens and evenly coats the chicken and broccoli.
Remove from heat and serve immediately over steamed rice or noodles for a complete meal.
