Prepare all ingredients before starting. Thinly slice the chicken breast (or tofu) into bite-sized strips. Dice vegetables as instructed. Mince garlic and grate ginger.
In a small bowl, prepare the sauce. Mix together soy sauce, oyster sauce, honey, cornstarch, and water until fully combined. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large wok or frying pan over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken (or tofu) to the pan and cook for about 4-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until it is cooked through or lightly golden. Remove from the pan and set aside.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the pan. Add garlic and ginger, then stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the broccoli, carrots, bell peppers, and snap peas to the pan. Stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Return the cooked chicken (or tofu) to the pan and toss it with the vegetables.
Give the prepared sauce a quick stir, then pour it over the stir fry. Stir everything together and cook for another 2 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the ingredients evenly.
Drizzle sesame oil over the stir fry, then remove it from heat.
Serve hot over cooked rice or noodles. Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions if desired.
