Ingredients
- 1 pound Boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 1 cup Chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 1 cup Water
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Ginger powder
- 2 tablespoons Sesame oil
- 3 tablespoons Oyster sauce substitute (soy-free)
- 1 medium Onion
- 3 Celery stalks
- 2 medium Carrots
- 2 cups Bean sprouts
- 1 can (15 ounces) Bamboo shoots
- 1 Green bell pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt

Instructions
Slice the chicken breast into thin strips and season it with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and ginger powder. Set aside.
In a small bowl, mix the chicken broth, water, and cornstarch until completely smooth. Stir in the soy-free oyster sauce substitute and set the sauce mixture aside.
Chop the onion, celery, carrots, and green bell pepper into bite-sized pieces.
Heat 1 tablespoon of sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken strips to the skillet and stir-fry for 5-7 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of sesame oil. Add the onions and stir-fry for 2 minutes.
Add the celery, carrots, and green bell pepper to the skillet and stir-fry for another 3 minutes.
Add the bean sprouts and bamboo shoots to the skillet and continue to stir-fry for an additional 2 minutes.
Return the chicken to the skillet, pour in the sauce mixture, and stir everything together. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and coat all the ingredients.
Remove from heat and serve the Soy-Free Classic Chicken Chop Suey hot over cooked rice or noodles as desired.
