Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season with salt, pepper, and 1 tablespoon of soy sauce. Sprinkle with cornstarch and toss to coat evenly. Let it marinate for 10 minutes while preparing the vegetables.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until it's golden brown and fully cooked, around 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add minced garlic and ginger, stirring frequently for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Toss in the red bell pepper, broccoli florets, and sliced carrot. Stir-fry the vegetables for 4-5 minutes until they are tender-crisp.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, oyster sauce, honey, and sesame oil. Stir well until everything is evenly coated and heated through, about 2-3 minutes.
Sprinkle with green onions and sesame seeds (if using) before serving.
Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles for a complete meal.
