Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 0.25 cup soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 red bell pepper
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 carrot
- 1 cup sugar snap peas
- 3 garlic cloves
- 1 inch piece fresh ginger
- 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 3 green onions
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
Instructions
Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips. In a medium bowl, mix the chicken with the soy sauce and cornstarch. Let it marinate while you prepare other ingredients.
Slice the red bell pepper into thin strips. Cut the carrot into thin matchsticks. Mince the garlic and grate the ginger.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken strips and stir-fry until they are browned and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the garlic and ginger and stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the sliced red bell pepper, broccoli, carrot, and sugar snap peas to the skillet. Stir-fry the vegetables for about 3-4 minutes, or until they are crisp-tender.
Return the chicken to the skillet. Add the hoisin sauce and sesame oil. Toss everything together until the chicken and vegetables are well coated with the sauce.
Slice the green onions and sprinkle them over the stir-fry along with the sesame seeds.
Serve the stir-fry hot, optionally over cooked rice or noodles.
