Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Boneless chicken breast (or tofu for a vegetarian option)
- 4 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Sesame oil
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Ginger, minced
- 200 grams Broccoli florets
- 1 medium Carrot, thinly sliced
- 1 medium Bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 2 stalks Green onions, chopped
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons Cornstarch
- 4 tablespoons Water
- 4 cups Cooked rice or noodles
Instructions
Cut the chicken breast (or tofu) into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, and water to create a stir-fry sauce. Set this aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken (or tofu) to the skillet, cooking for 5-7 minutes until the pieces are fully cooked and lightly browned. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and add the minced garlic and ginger. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the broccoli, carrots, and bell pepper to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Return the cooked chicken (or tofu) to the skillet and mix well with the vegetables.
Pour the prepared stir-fry sauce into the skillet and toss everything together. Allow to cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly.
Garnish with chopped green onions and serve immediately over cooked rice or noodles.
