Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized cubes. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.

  2. 2

    Chop the Vegetables

    Dice the bell pepper and carrot into small pieces. Cut the broccoli into small florets and chop the green onions.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sauté the Chicken

    In a large skillet or wok, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the cubed chicken and sauté until golden brown and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

  2. 4

    Stir-Fry the Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add the diced bell pepper, carrot, and broccoli florets. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

  3. 5

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a small bowl, mix together soy sauce, oyster sauce, cornstarch, water, and brown sugar until well combined.

  4. 6

    Combine Everything

    Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the vegetables. Pour the sauce mixture over the chicken and vegetables. Stir well to coat everything in the sauce and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken.

  5. 7

    Add Almonds

    Add sliced almonds to the skillet and stir to combine. Cook for another minute to heat the almonds through.

  6. 8

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove from heat, garnish with chopped green onions, and serve hot.
