Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine the diced chicken breast with salt, pepper, and half of the soy sauce. Mix well and marinate for 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a small bowl, mix the remaining soy sauce, oyster sauce, minced garlic, cornstarch, and water. Stir until the cornstarch is completely dissolved.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Stir Fry the Chicken

    Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a wok or large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and stir-fry for about 5-7 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and browned. Remove the chicken from the wok and set aside.

  2. 4

    Stir Fry the String Beans

    In the same wok, add another tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the string beans and stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until they are bright green and slightly tender.

  3. 5

    Combine and Finish

    Return the cooked chicken to the wok with the string beans. Pour the prepared sauce over the chicken and beans. Stir well to coat everything evenly. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens and everything is heated through. Drizzle sesame oil over the top before serving.
