This Chicken Veggie Stir Fry is a fast, healthy, and flavorful dinner perfect for busy weeknights. Juicy chicken, crisp broccoli, and tender mushrooms are stir-fried with garlic, ginger, and soy sauce for a customizable meal that’s as nutritious as it is delicious


Ingredients

Main Stir Fry:

  • 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, thinly sliced

  • 2 tbsp cornstarch

  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil

  • 2 cups broccoli florets

  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms

  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced

  • 2 green onions, sliced

Stir Fry Sauce:

  • 1/4 cup soy sauce

  • 1 tbsp oyster sauce (optional)

  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar

  • 1 tbsp brown sugar

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated

  • 1/2 tsp sesame oil

  • 1/4 cup water

  • 1 tsp cornstarch (mixed with water to thicken, if needed)


Instructions

  • Prepare Ingredients:
    Toss sliced chicken with cornstarch and set aside. Mix all stir fry sauce ingredients in a small bowl.

  • Cook Chicken:
    Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Sear chicken until golden and cooked through. Remove and set aside.

  • Stir Fry Veggies:
    Add remaining oil and sauté broccoli, mushrooms, and bell pepper for 3–4 minutes until just tender.

  • Combine and Sauce:
    Return chicken to the pan. Pour in the sauce, toss everything together, and simmer for 1–2 minutes. Add cornstarch slurry if thicker sauce is desired.

  • Finish and Serve:
    Stir in green onions and sesame oil. Serve hot over rice or noodles.


Notes

  • Swap in other vegetables like snap peas, carrots, or zucchini.

  • For extra spice, add chili flakes or sriracha to the sauce.

  • Use tamari for a gluten-free version.
