Chicken and Broccoli Stir-Fry

Ingredients

• chicken breast — 300 g, diced
• broccoli — 1 head (about 300 g), cut into florets
• garlic — 3 cloves, minced
• soy sauce — 1 tbsp
• oyster sauce — 1.5 tbsp
• cornstarch — 1 tbsp
• cooking oil — 2 tbsp
• salt — 1/2 tsp (for blanching water)

Steps (beginner-friendly)

1. Dice the chicken into 2 cm cubes. Mix with 1 tbsp soy sauce and 1 tbsp cornstarch in a bowl; marinate 10 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, bring a pot of water to a boil with 1/2 tsp salt. Boil the broccoli florets exactly 1 minute until bright green, then drain.
3. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a wok over high heat. Add the chicken and spread it out; let it sear 30 seconds untouched, then stir-fry 2-3 minutes until white all over and just cooked through. Remove to a plate.
4. Add the remaining 1 tbsp oil and minced garlic; stir 20 seconds until fragrant.
5. Return the broccoli and stir-fry 1 minute.
6. Add the chicken back along with 1.5 tbsp oyster sauce and 2 tbsp water; toss 1 minute until everything is glossy and coated.
7. Serve immediately with rice.
