Description
A quick and delightful Chicken Stir-Fry Chop Suey recipe that combines tender chicken with fresh vegetables in a savory sauce.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into thin strips
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 cup bell pepper, sliced (any color)
- 1 cup snap peas
- 1 cup carrots, julienned
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1/4 cup chicken broth
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Cooked rice or noodles for serving
Instructions
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
- Add the chicken strips and season with salt and pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken is browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the broccoli, bell pepper, snap peas, and carrots. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
- Add the minced garlic and ginger to the vegetables and stir-fry for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, cornstarch, and chicken broth until smooth. Pour this mixture over the vegetables in the skillet.
- Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and stir everything together. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens and everything is heated through.
- Drizzle with sesame oil before serving. Serve over cooked rice or noodles.
Notes
- For added flavor, try marinating the chicken in soy sauce and ginger for 30 minutes before cooking.
- You can also substitute the chicken with tofu or shrimp for a different protein option.
- For a spicy kick, add red pepper flakes or sriracha to the stir-fry.
