Ingredients

• 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 2 cups broccoli florets
• 1 red bell pepper
• 1 large carrot
• 1 cup snow peas
• 3 cloves garlic
• 1 tablespoon fresh ginger
• 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 2 green onions
• 1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Directions

Step 1

Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips.

Step 2

In a bowl, mix the chicken strips with 2 tablespoons of soy sauce and the cornstarch. Set aside to marinate for 10 minutes.

Step 3

While the chicken marinates, prepare the vegetables: cut the red bell pepper into thin strips, peel and slice the carrot into thin matches, mince the garlic cloves, grate the ginger, and slice the green onions.

Step 4

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat.

Step 5

Add the marinated chicken slices to the hot pan and stir-fry until they are cooked through, about 5 minutes. Remove chicken from the pan and set aside.

Step 6

In the same pan, add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil.

Step 7

Add the garlic and ginger to the pan and stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 8

Add the broccoli florets, red bell pepper strips, carrot slices, and snow peas to the pan. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, or until the vegetables begin to soften but remain crisp.

Step 9

Return the cooked chicken to the pan.

Step 10

Add the hoisin sauce, remaining 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, and sesame oil to the pan, tossing everything to coat well.

Step 11

Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through and blend the flavors.

Step 12

Garnish the stir-fry with sliced green onions and sesame seeds before serving.
