Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Chicken breast
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 2 teaspoons Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
- 1 Bell pepper, sliced
- 2 cups Broccoli florets
- 1 Carrot, thinly sliced
- 2 Scallions, sliced
- 4 servings Rice or noodles, for serving
Instructions
Cut the chicken breast into thin strips and place them in a bowl.
In a separate small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, and cornstarch. Pour this mixture over the chicken pieces and marinate for at least 10 minutes.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the marinated chicken strips to the pan and stir-fry for 4-5 minutes, until fully cooked and lightly browned. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add the remaining vegetable oil. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, and stir-fry for 30 seconds until aromatic.
Add the sliced bell pepper, broccoli florets, and carrot to the pan. Stir-fry the vegetables for 4-5 minutes or until they are tender-crisp.
Return the cooked chicken to the pan and add the sliced scallions. Stir everything together, ensuring the sauce coats the chicken and vegetables evenly.
Serve the stir fry chicken immediately over rice or noodles for a complete meal.
