Ingredients

• 500 grams Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 3 Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 medium Onion, sliced
• 1 medium Carrot, thinly sliced
• 2 Celery stalks, sliced
• 150 grams Bean sprouts
• 1 medium Bell pepper, sliced
• 100 grams Water chestnuts, sliced
• 250 milliliters Low-sodium chicken broth
• 2 tablespoons Oyster sauce
• 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Begin by slicing the chicken breasts into thin strips. In a bowl, combine the chicken strips with 1 tablespoon of soy sauce and 1 tablespoon of cornstarch. Mix well and set aside to marinate for about 10 minutes.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix the remaining soy sauce, chicken broth, oyster sauce, and the remaining cornstarch. Stir until the cornstarch is completely dissolved and set the sauce aside.

Step 3

Heat the vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

Step 4

Add the marinated chicken strips to the wok and stir-fry until they are browned and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes. Remove the chicken from the wok and set aside.

Step 5

In the same wok, add the sliced onion, carrot, and celery. Stir-fry for about 2 minutes until they begin to soften.

Step 6

Add the bell pepper, water chestnuts, and bean sprouts to the wok. Continue to stir-fry for another 2 minutes.

Step 7

Return the cooked chicken to the wok and pour in the sauce mixture. Stir everything together and bring to a simmer. Cook for another 3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and coat the chicken and vegetables evenly.

Step 8

Finish the dish by drizzling sesame oil over the top. Season with salt and ground black pepper to taste.

Step 9

Serve the Chicken Chop Suey hot, either on its own or with steamed rice or noodles.
