Ingredients:

  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts, sliced into thin strips
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (canola or peanut)
  • 1 bell pepper (red or yellow), sliced into strips
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 0.5 cup snap peas or snow peas
  • 0.5 cup carrots, julienned
  • (optional) Green onions for garnish
  • - For the Ginger Jar Sauce:
  • .5 cup chicken broth
  • - Two tablespoons cornstarch mixed with two tablespoons water to form a slurry
  • - Two teaspoons sesame oil

Instructions:

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, rice vinegar, grated ginger, and minced garlic. Add in the sliced chicken and toss to coat evenly. Let it marinate for at least ten minutes while you prepare your vegetables.
  2. Wash and slice all vegetables as instructed. Having them prepped beforehand will make your stir-frying process smoother.
  3. Heat your wok or large skillet over medium-high heat until its hot but not smoking. Add one tablespoon of vegetable oil.
  4. Add marinated chicken to the hot pan in a single layer; do not overcrowd it—work in batches if necessary. Sear for about three to four minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from pan and set aside on a plate.
  5. In the same pan, add another tablespoon of vegetable oil if needed; then add bell peppers, broccoli florets,snap peas/snow peas,and carrots.Stir-fry for about five to seven minutes until they are vibrant in color and just tender but still crisp.
  6. Return cooked chicken back to the pan with vegetables; stir well to combine everything together.
  7. Pour in half a cup of chicken broth followed by sesame oil into the mixture while stirring continuously until combined.
  8. Slowly add cornstarch slurry while stirring constantly—this should thicken up quickly within a minute or so.
  9. Once thickened properly; remove from heat; serve hot garnished with chopped green onions if desired!
