ALL-PURPOSE STIR-FRY SAUCE (BROWN GARLIC SAUCE)
Adapted from Martin Yan's Chinese Cooking for Dummies. This is my favorite stir-fry sauce. It makes enough for two meals. Having extra on hand makes for a quick meal. My son will actually eat vegetables he can dip in the sauce! WARNING about the amount of soy sauce. When I used Kikkoman soy sauce, I found this sauce far too salty. I now use Angostura, which is much lower in salt. When adding soy sauce, start with less than half the amount and slowly add more to taste. Using vegetable broth makes this vegetarian. Yield: 1 3/4 cups (couldn't get that amount entered)

Tips:
- Use a well-seasoned wok: A well-seasoned wok will help prevent the chicken from sticking and ensure even cooking.
- Cut the chicken into thin, uniform strips: This will help the chicken cook evenly and quickly.
- Marinate the chicken in the garlic sauce for at least 30 minutes: This will help the chicken to absorb the flavors of the sauce.
- Use a high heat when stir-frying: This will help to create a nice sear on the outside of the chicken and keep it juicy on the inside.
- Stir-fry the chicken in batches: This will prevent the chicken from overcrowding the wok and ensure that it cooks evenly.
- Add the vegetables towards the end of the cooking time: This will help to prevent them from overcooking.
- Serve the stir-fry immediately: This is when it will be at its best.
