Ingredients

• 500 grams chicken breast
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
• 1 tablespoons cornstarch
• 3 cloves garlic
• 1 tablespoons ginger
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 200 grams broccoli florets
• 1 bell pepper
• 1 carrot
• 3 green onions
• 1 teaspoons sesame oil
• 4 tablespoons water
• 1 tablespoons sesame seeds
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Dice the chicken breast into small, bite-sized pieces and set aside.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix together soy sauce, hoisin sauce, cornstarch, and water to create the stir fry sauce.

Step 3

Mince the garlic and ginger. Slice the bell pepper into thin strips, julienne the carrot, and cut the green onions into 1-inch pieces.

Step 4

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

Step 5

Add the diced chicken to the pan and season with black pepper. Cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring frequently, until the chicken is fully cooked and lightly browned. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.

Step 6

In the same pan, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Toss in minced garlic and ginger, cooking for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 7

Add the broccoli florets, bell pepper, and carrot to the pan. Stir fry the vegetables for 4-5 minutes until they begin to soften but remain crisp.

Step 8

Return the cooked chicken to the pan and pour the prepared stir fry sauce over the mixture. Stir well to coat everything evenly.

Step 9

Cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and glaze the chicken and vegetables.

Step 10

Drizzle with sesame oil and sprinkle with sesame seeds and green onions for garnish.

Step 11

Serve immediately over steamed rice or noodles for a complete meal.
