Let's Get Started
- In a small bowl, combine the minced garlic, grated ginger, soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil. Set aside.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
- Add the sliced chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the broccoli florets, julienned carrot, and sliced bell pepper. Stir fry for 3-4 minutes, or until the vegetables are crisp-tender.
