Ingredients
- 1/2 lb (250g) chicken breast, cut into cubes
- 1/2 tablespoon corn starch
- 1 pinch salt
- 1/2 lb (250g) broccoli florets
- 2 tablespoons oil
- 3 cloves garlic minced
Sauce:
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon corn starch
- 1/2 cup water
- 3 dashes ground white pepper
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 pot of water and bring it to boil. Cook the broccoli for 1 minute. Drained and set aside.
- 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.
- When the chicken is cooked through, add the broccoli, stir to combine well. Dish out and serve immediately.
Notes
Don't overcook the broccoli. The broccoli should be crunchy and have a bite.
