Ingredients

  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 0.5 lb raw shrimp (peeled and deveined)
  • 2 tbsp fresh ginger (grated)
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 0.25 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp oyster sauce
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 0.25 cup water
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 1 medium red bell pepper (sliced)
  • 1 medium carrot (julienned)
  • 2 stalks green onions (sliced)
  • 1 tsp sesame oil

Directions

Step 1

Cut the chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces and pat dry the shrimp with a paper towel. Set aside.

Step 2

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

Step 3

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

Step 4

Add the chicken pieces to the wok and cook for 4-5 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken and set aside.

Step 5

Add the shrimp to the same wok and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until pink and just cooked. Remove and set aside with the chicken.

Step 6

Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in the wok. Add grated ginger and minced garlic, stirring until fragrant for about 30 seconds.

Step 7

Add broccoli florets, red bell pepper, and carrot to the wok. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.

Step 8

Return the chicken and shrimp to the wok. Pour in the stir-fry sauce and toss everything together until well coated and the sauce thickens, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 9

Drizzle with sesame oil and garnish with sliced green onions before serving.

Step 10

Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles.
