Chinese Chicken and Broccoli
I have a bunch of amazing Chinese recipes to share with you, starting with a family favorite, chicken and broccoli.
Easy Chicken and Broccoli Stir-fry
This Chicken and Broccoli recipe is one of my child’s favorite Chinese chicken stir-fry dishes. He loves the tender chicken, and he has always loved broccoli, and the savory and yummy brown sauce completes the dish.
A few years ago, I wrote a best-selling Chinese cookbook “Easy Chinese Recipes” and I talked about the techniques of making chicken tender that produces Chinese restaurant quality dishes.

- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon corn starch
- 1/2 cup water

Instructions
- Marinate the chicken with the cornstarch and salt. If the chicken is too dry, add a little water, so each piece of the chicken is nicely coated with the cornstarch.

- Heat up a wok or skillet on high heat, add the oil. When the oil is heated, add the garlic and stir-fry until aromatic or become light brown. Add the chicken and do a few quick stirs. Add the sauce and turn the heat to low.
