• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
• 1 red bell pepper, sliced

• 1 teaspoon red chili flakes
• 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
• 1 tablespoon sriracha
• 100 ml chicken stock
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 2 scallions, sliced
• 1 teaspoon sesame seeds

Directions

Step 1

Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips and place them in a bowl.

Step 2

Add 1 tablespoon of soy sauce and the cornstarch to the chicken. Mix well and let marinate while you prepare the other ingredients.

Step 3

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

Step 4

Add the chicken strips to the skillet and cook until golden and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.

Step 5

In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.

Step 6

Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, stirring constantly for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 7

Add the sliced red and green bell peppers, julienned carrot, and broccoli florets. Stir fry for 4-5 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.

Step 8

Sprinkle the red chili flakes over the vegetables and stir to combine.

Step 9

In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sriracha, and chicken stock.

Step 10

Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and pour the sauce mixture over the chicken and vegetables.

Step 11

Stir well to coat everything evenly and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.

Step 12

Drizzle the sesame oil over the stir fry and stir once more.

Step 13

Garnish with sliced scallions and sesame seeds before serving.

Step 14

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