Ingredients

Scale

  • 3 cups broccoli florets

  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced

  • 1/4 cup soy sauce

  • 2 tablespoons oyster sauce

  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch (mixed with 2 tablespoons water for slurry)

  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil

  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

  • Cooked white rice (for serving)

  • Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

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

  3. Add chicken slices and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes.

  4. Remove chicken and set aside.

  5. Add remaining oil to the pan; sauté garlic and ginger until fragrant (30 seconds).

  6. Add broccoli florets and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until tender-crisp.

  7. Return the chicken to the pan; pour in the sauce mixture.

  8. Stir well and add cornstarch slurry to thicken the sauce.

  9. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken and broccoli.

  11. Serve hot over steamed rice.

Notes

  • Use chicken thighs for extra juiciness.

  • Add carrots, bell peppers, or snap peas for more variety.

  • Adjust the sauce sweetness with a bit of honey if desired.

  • Gluten-free version: Use tamari instead of soy sauce.
