Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Chicken breast (or tofu for a vegetarian option), cut into bite-sized pieces
- 3 tbsp Soy sauce, divided
- 1 tbsp Cornstarch
- 2 tbsp Vegetable oil (or any high-heat cooking oil)
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tsp Ginger, grated
- 1 Red bell pepper, sliced
- 2 cups Broccoli florets
- 1 Carrot, julienned
- 1 cup Snow peas
- 2 Green onions, chopped
- 2 tbsp Hoisin sauce
- 1 tbsp Oyster sauce (or vegetarian oyster sauce)
- 1 tsp Sesame oil
- 4 cups Cooked rice or noodles (optional, for serving)
Instructions
In a small bowl, marinate the chicken or tofu with 2 tablespoons of soy sauce and the cornstarch for 10 minutes.
Heat a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and swirl to coat.
Add the marinated chicken or tofu to the wok and stir-fry until browned and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes. Remove from the wok and set aside.
Add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil to the wok. Once hot, add the garlic and ginger, and stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Toss in the red bell pepper, broccoli florets, carrot, and snow peas. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, until the vegetables are crisp-tender.
Return the cooked chicken or tofu to the wok, along with the green onions. Stir to combine.
In a small bowl, mix the hoisin sauce, oyster sauce, remaining 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, and sesame oil. Pour the sauce into the wok and stir to coat all ingredients evenly.
Cook for an additional 2 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Serve immediately over cooked rice or noodles, if desired. Enjoy!
