Ingredients

  • 6 ounces skinless, boneless chicken breast, cut into small pieces

  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce

  • 2 tablespoons dry sherry

  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

  • 1 zucchini, cut into rounds and quartered

  • 1 large green bell pepper, cut into squares

  • 1 cup broccoli florets, cut into pieces

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

  • ½ cup chicken broth

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

  • 6 green onions, chopped

Directions

  1. Mix chicken, soy sauce, sherry, and cornstarch together in a large bowl.

  2. Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat; cook and stir zucchini, bell pepper, broccoli, and garlic for 2 to 3 minutes. Add chicken broth, cover, and simmer until vegetables are tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer vegetables and sauce to a large bowl and wipe the skillet clean.

  3. Heat remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil over medium-high heat; cook and stir chicken until meat is no longer pink in the center, about 5 minutes. Stir in vegetables; continue to cook and stir for 2 to 3 minutes more. Sprinkle with green onions.

Cook’s Note

I usually at least double this recipe. You don't have to be exact on the proportions; just use enough cornstarch so that the sauce at the end is thick enough.
