Ingredients
- 450 grams Boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 2 teaspoons Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, grated
- 1 large Red bell pepper, sliced
- 2 cups Broccoli florets
- 1 large Carrot, julienned
- 2 stalks Green onions, chopped
- 3 tablespoons Water
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Slice the chicken breast into thin strips and place them in a bowl.
Step 2
In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 teaspoon of sesame oil, and 1 teaspoon of cornstarch. Pour this mixture over the chicken slices and toss well to coat. Let the chicken marinate for 10 minutes.
Step 3
While the chicken marinates, prepare your vegetables: slice the red bell pepper, chop broccoli florets, julienne the carrot, and chop the green onions.
Step 4
In another small bowl, mix the remaining 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, 2 tablespoons of oyster sauce, 3 tablespoons of water, 1 teaspoon of cornstarch, and 1 teaspoon of black pepper to create the stir fry sauce. Set aside.
Step 5
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat. Add the marinated chicken in a single layer and cook for 3-4 minutes until lightly browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Step 6
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Stir-fry the minced garlic and grated ginger for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 7
Add the broccoli, red bell pepper, and carrot to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are crisp-tender.
Step 8
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and pour in the stir fry sauce. Toss everything together and stir-fry for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and coat the ingredients evenly.
Step 9
Remove the stir fry from heat and garnish with chopped green onions and optional sesame seeds.
Step 10
Serve immediately over steamed rice or noodles and enjoy!
