Marinade

Method

Marinade Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and place them in a bowl.

  2. 2

    Mix Marinade

    In a separate bowl, combine soy sauce, cornstarch, and sesame oil. Mix until smooth.

  3. 3

    Marinate

    Pour the marinade over the chicken pieces and mix well. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

Stir-Fry Cooking

  1. 4

    Heat Oil

    In a large pan or wok, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat.

  2. 5

    Cook Chicken

    Add the marinated chicken to the hot pan and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.

  3. 6

    Sauté Vegetables

    In the same pan, add garlic and ginger, sautéing for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Then add the sliced bell peppers, onion, and broccoli. Stir-fry for about 3-5 minutes until the vegetables are crisp-tender.

  4. 7

    Add Chicken and Sauce

    Return the cooked chicken to the pan. Add Hunan-style chili paste and chicken broth. Stir well to combine and cook for another 2-3 minutes until heated through.

  5. 8

    Garnish

    Sprinkle with chopped green onions before serving.
