- 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
- 1 piece Red bell pepper, sliced
- 2 cups Broccoli florets
- 1 cup Carrots, julienned
- 1 cup Snap peas
- 2 tablespoons Oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 2 pieces Green onions, sliced
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (optional)

Instructions
Slice the pheasant breasts into thin strips and place them in a bowl. Add 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of sesame oil, and the cornstarch. Toss to coat evenly and let marinate for 15 minutes.
Heat a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Once hot, add the marinated pheasant strips and cook for 3-4 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned and cooked through. Remove from the wok and set aside.
In the same wok, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the sliced red bell pepper, broccoli florets, julienned carrots, and snap peas. Stir fry the vegetables for 4-5 minutes, or until they are tender-crisp.
In a small bowl, mix together the remaining 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, oyster sauce, honey, and water. Stir well to combine.
Return the cooked pheasant to the wok with the vegetables. Pour the sauce mixture over the stir fry and toss everything together to coat evenly. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Sprinkle with sliced green onions and sesame seeds, if using, before serving.
Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles.
