Ingredients

• 500 grams Boneless, skinless chicken breast
• 300 grams Broccoli florets
• 2 tablespoons Cooking oil (vegetable or canola)
• 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, minced
• 4 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Oyster sauce
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
• 3 tablespoons Water
• 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Red chili flakes (optional)
• 2 stalks Green onions, sliced (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Slice the chicken breast into thin bite-sized strips and set aside.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix together soy sauce, oyster sauce, honey, cornstarch, and water until smooth to create the stir-fry sauce. Set aside.

Step 3

Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of cooking oil.

Step 4

Once the oil is hot, add the chicken strips in a single layer. Sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.

Step 5

In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of cooking oil. Add the minced garlic and ginger, stir-frying for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 6

Add the broccoli florets to the skillet. Stir-fry for 4-5 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender-crisp. If needed, add 1-2 tablespoons of water to create steam and help the broccoli cook faster.

Step 7

Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the broccoli.

Step 8

Pour the prepared stir-fry sauce over the chicken and broccoli. Stir everything together to coat evenly. Let it cook for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens.

Step 9

Drizzle sesame oil over the stir-fry and sprinkle with red chili flakes, if using, for extra flavor.

Step 10

Serve hot, garnished with sliced green onions if desired. Enjoy with steamed rice or noodles.
