Instructions

1. Season the bite-sized chicken pieces with salt and pepper.

2. In a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat, add the oil and cook the chicken until nearly cooked through and lightly browned, about 4-5 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside.

3. In the same pan, add the garlic and ginger and stir briefly until fragrant. Add the broccoli florets and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the broccoli is crisp-tender.

4. While the broccoli is cooking, whisk together the soy sauce, chicken broth, cornstarch, and oyster sauce (if using) until smooth.

5. Return the cooked chicken to the pan. Pour the sauce over the chicken and broccoli, and stir to coat everything evenly. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens and the mixture is heated through.

6. Drizzle the sesame oil over the stir-fry, give it one last toss, and serve immediately over steamed rice or noodles.

Notes

Chicken and Broccoli Stir-Fry pairs beautifully with a variety of accompaniments. Serve it over a bed of steamed white or brown rice, or toss it with your favorite noodles for a complete meal.
