Ingredients

• 1 piece boneless, skinless chicken breast
• 2 cups broccoli florets
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 1 teaspoon cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon water
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 2 pieces garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
• 0.5 teaspoon red chili flakes (optional)
• 2 cups cooked white rice (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Thinly slice the chicken breast into bite-sized strips. In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, and water to make the stir-fry sauce. Set aside.

Step 2

Cut broccoli into small florets and rinse under cold water. Mince the garlic and grate the ginger.

Step 3

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken strips to the pan and stir-fry for 5-6 minutes, until completely cooked through and lightly browned. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.

Step 4

In the same pan, add another tablespoon of vegetable oil. Toss in the minced garlic, grated ginger, and red chili flakes (if using). Stir-fry for 30 seconds, just until fragrant.

Step 5

Add the broccoli florets to the pan and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, until they turn bright green and begin to soften slightly.

Step 6

Return the cooked chicken to the pan, pouring the reserved stir-fry sauce over the top. Stir everything together and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, until the sauce thickens and evenly coats the chicken and broccoli.

Step 7

Remove from heat and serve immediately, alongside cooked white rice, if desired.
