Chicken and veggies stir-fry is a quick and healthy dish that combines tender chicken and a variety of colorful vegetables, all cooked together in a flavorful sauce. This stir-fry can be served over rice, noodles, or eaten on its own. Here's a simple recipe to make this delicious meal:
Ingredients:
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast or thigh, sliced into thin strips
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1-inch piece of fresh ginger, grated
- 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 cup snap peas or sugar snap peas
- 1 medium carrot, julienned
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms (optional)
- 2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)
- Sesame seeds (for garnish, optional)
- Cooked rice or noodles for serving
Instructions:
In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, and cornstarch to make the stir-fry sauce. Set it aside.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet and stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the sliced chicken to the skillet and stir-fry until it's cooked through and no longer pink.
Push the chicken to one side of the skillet, and add the sliced bell peppers, broccoli, snap peas, carrot, and sliced mushrooms (if using) to the other side. Stir-fry the vegetables for 2-3 minutes until they are slightly tender but still crisp.
Give the stir-fry sauce a quick stir, and then pour it over the chicken and vegetables in the skillet.
Toss everything together until the sauce coats the chicken and vegetables evenly. Continue to cook for an additional minute or two until the sauce thickens and coats the ingredients nicely.
Remove the skillet from the heat.
Serve the chicken and veggies stir-fry over cooked rice or noodles.
Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds (if using) for added flavor and presentation.
