CHICKEN BROCCOLI STIR FRY (EXTRA SAUCE!)



Chicken Broccoli Stir Fry (extra sauce!) image

Recipe video above. This is just about the minimum ingredients you can use to make a great stir fry that still really stacks up to real Chinese take out! Extra saucy is how I like this - because broccoli florets have a tendency to hold lots of sauce but I still want some to soak my rice.Shortcut using Charlie - see Note 5 (the sauce in this recipe is basically Charlie!).

BROCCOLI AND CHICKEN STIR-FRY



Broccoli and Chicken Stir-Fry image

Made up. Serve with rice.

Provided by Jeri

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     Asian

Time 35m

Yield 3

Number Of Ingredients 10

⅔ cup soy sauce
¼ cup brown sugar
½ teaspoon ground ginger
1 pinch red pepper flakes, or to taste
2 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 teaspoons vegetable oil, or to taste
3 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cut into chunks
1 onion, sliced
3 cups broccoli florets

Steps:

  • Stir soy sauce, brown sugar, ginger, and red pepper flakes together in a bowl to dissolve sugar into the liquid. Mix water and cornstarch together in a small bowl; stir with a whisk until cornstarch dissolves completely.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over high heat. Fry chicken and onion in hot oil until the chicken is no longer pink in the center and the onion is tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir broccoli with the chicken and onion; saute until the broccoli is hot, about 5 minutes. Push the chicken and vegetables mixture to the side of the skillet.
  • Pour the soy sauce mixture into the vacant part of the skillet. Stir the cornstarch slurry into the soy sauce mixture until the color is consistent. Move the chicken and vegetables back into the center to the pan; saute until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken and vegetables, about 5 minutes more.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, high-quality ingredients will make a big difference in the flavor of your stir-fry. Look for broccoli florets that are tightly closed and have a deep green color, chicken breasts that are plump and juicy, and mushrooms that are firm and not slimy.
  • Cut your vegetables and chicken into uniform pieces: This will help them cook evenly. Cut the broccoli florets into 1-inch pieces, the chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes, and the mushrooms into 1/4-inch slices.
  • Use a large skillet or wok: This will give you plenty of room to stir-fry the ingredients without overcrowding them. A large skillet or wok will also help prevent the ingredients from sticking.
  • Heat your skillet or wok over high heat: This will help to sear the chicken and vegetables and prevent them from becoming soggy. When the skillet or wok is hot, add a little bit of oil and swirl it around to coat the bottom.
  • Stir-fry the ingredients in batches: If you try to stir-fry all of the ingredients at once, they will not cook evenly. Instead, stir-fry the chicken in one batch and the vegetables in another batch. Once the chicken and vegetables are cooked, add them back to the skillet or wok and stir-fry them together for a few minutes.
  • Season the stir-fry to taste: Once the stir-fry is cooked, season it to taste with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings. You can also add a splash of soy sauce or oyster sauce for extra flavor.

Conclusion:

Broccoli stir-fry with chicken and mushrooms is a quick, easy, and healthy meal that is perfect for busy weeknights. It is packed with flavor and nutrients, and it can be easily customized to your liking. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced cook, this stir-fry is sure to be a hit.
