Garlik chicken stir fry

Here’s a simple recipe for garlic chicken stir-fry:

Ingredients:

• 1 lb (450g) chicken breast, thinly sliced
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 bell pepper, sliced
• 1 cup broccoli florets
• 1 carrot, thinly sliced
• 1 onion, sliced
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon oyster sauce (optional)
• 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce (optional)
• 1 teaspoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water (for thickening)
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Cooked rice or noodles, for serving

Instructions:

1. Heat the Oil: In a large pan or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
2. Cook the Chicken: Add the sliced chicken to the pan and stir-fry until it’s cooked through and lightly browned. Remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside.
3. Sauté Garlic: In the same pan, add a bit more oil if needed and sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
4. Add Vegetables: Add the bell pepper, broccoli, carrot, and onion. Stir-fry for about 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
5. Return Chicken: Return the cooked chicken to the pan.
6. Add Sauces: Stir in the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and hoisin sauce (if using). Mix well.
7. Thicken Sauce: Add the cornstarch mixture to the pan and stir until the sauce has thickened and coats the chicken and vegetables evenly.
8. Season: Season with salt and pepper to taste.
9. Serve: Serve the stir-fry over cooked rice or noodles.
