Chicken Stir Fry

Tender chicken and crisp vegetables in a glossy sauce - faster than takeout and on the table in 20 minutes.

Ingredients

  • 400 g chicken breast, sliced
  • 400 g mixed stir-fry vegetables
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp each garlic and ginger

Instructions

  1. Toss chicken with cornstarch and a splash of soy.
  2. Sear in a hot wok until golden, then remove.
  3. Stir-fry the vegetables 3 minutes; add garlic and ginger.
  4. Return chicken with sauce, toss 1 minute and serve.

💡 Chef's tip

Have every ingredient prepped and beside the pan before you start - stir frying moves too fast to chop as you go.

Velveting the chicken in a little cornstarch and soy before cooking gives it that silky, tender coating you get at Chinese restaurants but rarely at home.
