Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 60 milliliters soy sauce
- 15 milliliters sesame oil
- 3 cloves garlic
- 10 grams fresh ginger
- 1 medium red bell pepper
- 200 grams broccoli
- 150 grams mushrooms
- 2 stalks green onions
- 30 milliliters olive oil
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Slice the chicken breast into thin strips approximately 1/4 inch thick. Set aside.
In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger to make the marinade.
Add the chicken strips to the marinade, coating them evenly, and let them sit for at least 10 minutes.
While the chicken is marinating, prepare the vegetables: thinly slice the red bell pepper, cut broccoli into small florets, slice mushrooms, and chop green onions.
Heat olive oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the marinated chicken to the wok, including the marinade. Stir-fry for about 5 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink.
Remove the chicken from the wok and set it aside.
In the same wok, add the red bell pepper, broccoli, mushrooms, and half of the green onions. Stir-fry for about 4-5 minutes or until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Return the chicken to the wok and mix everything thoroughly. Sprinkle in the red pepper flakes and black pepper, and stir-fry for an additional 2 minutes to combine flavors.
Remove from heat and garnish with the remaining green onions. Serve immediately.
