Ingredients
4 thin-sliced chicken breasts, cut into strips
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 bell pepper, sliced
1 zucchini, sliced
1 carrot, julienned
3 garlic cloves, minced
1-inch piece of ginger, minced
2 green onions, sliced
Cooked rice (for serving)
Directions
- Prepare the Sauce:
In a small bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon oyster sauce, 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce, and 1 tablespoon sesame oil. Set aside. - Stir-Fry the Chicken:
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat. Add 4 thin-sliced chicken breasts (cut into strips) and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, until browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken and set aside. - Cook the Vegetables:
In the same pan, add more oil if needed and stir-fry 1 sliced bell pepper, 1 zucchini (sliced), and 1 julienned carrot for 3-4 minutes, until tender but still crisp. Add 3 minced garlic cloves and 1-inch piece of minced ginger and cook for 1 more minute. - Combine Everything:
Return the chicken to the pan and pour the sauce over everything. Toss to coat and heat through, about 2-3 minutes. - Serve:
Serve the stir-fry over cooked rice or noodles and garnish with sliced green onions.
Notes
- Advice:
For the best results, cook the chicken over high heat and remove it from the pan once browned to avoid overcooking. You can substitute hoisin sauce with soy sauce or add sriracha for extra heat. Serve with steamed rice or noodles.
