Ingredients

• 1 pound chicken breast
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 3 cloves garlic cloves
• 1 inch piece ginger
• 2 cups broccoli florets
• 1 cup carrots, thinly sliced
• 1 red bell pepper, sliced
• 1 cup snap peas
• 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 2 green onions, sliced
• 1 teaspoon sesame seeds (optional)
• 4 cups cooked rice or noodles (for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Slice the chicken breast into thin strips and place in a bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of soy sauce and the cornstarch, then mix to coat. Let it marinate for 10 minutes while prepping the vegetables.

Step 2

Mince the garlic cloves and grate the ginger. Wash and prepare the vegetables: cut the broccoli into small florets, thinly slice the carrots, slice the red bell pepper, and trim the snap peas.

Step 3

In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, oyster sauce, honey, and sesame oil. Set the sauce aside.

Step 4

Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and swirl to coat the pan.

Step 5

Add the marinated chicken to the pan and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and lightly browned. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.

Step 6

Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil to the pan. Toss in the garlic and ginger, stirring for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 7

Add the broccoli, carrots, red bell pepper, and snap peas to the pan. Stir-fry for 5-6 minutes, until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.

Step 8

Return the cooked chicken to the pan and pour the sauce mixture over the top. Stir everything together and cook for another 2 minutes, ensuring the sauce evenly coats all ingredients.

Step 9

Remove from heat and garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.

Step 10

Serve immediately over cooked rice or noodles. Enjoy your vibrant and flavorful stir fry!
