Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Chicken breast
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 tablespoon Ginger
- 200 grams Broccoli
- 2 Carrots
- 1 Red bell pepper
- 2 stalks Green onions
- 2 tablespoons Oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 0.5 teaspoon White pepper
- 4 cups Cooked white rice
Instructions
Slice the chicken breast into thin strips and marinate with 2 tablespoons of soy sauce and cornstarch. Set aside for 10 minutes.
Peel and finely mince the garlic and ginger. Slice the broccoli into florets, julienne the carrots, and cut the red bell pepper into strips. Slice the green onions diagonally.
In a large skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and stir-fry until cooked through, about 4-5 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the pan. Toss in the garlic and ginger, stirring for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the broccoli, carrots, and bell pepper to the pan. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are slightly tender but still crisp.
Return the cooked chicken to the pan and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, and white pepper. Stir to combine and cook for an additional 2 minutes to heat everything through.
Garnish with sliced green onions and serve immediately with cooked white rice on the side.
