Ingredients
Recipe as written makes 1 serving.
Steps
- Sauce: whisk [[soy]] soy sauce, [[oyster]] oyster sauce, [[vinegar]] rice vinegar, [[sesame]] sesame oil, [[cornstarch]] cornstarch, [[water]] water and [[honey]] honey.
- Pat [[protein]] of sliced chicken or beef dry with paper towels so it sears.
- Heat a wok or large skillet over high heat until very hot, about 2 minutes.
- Add half of [[oil]] avocado oil and half the meat in one layer. Let it sear 1β2 minutes without moving, then stir-fry 1β2 minutes until mostly cooked. Move to a plate. Repeat with the rest.
- Add [[broccoli]] broccoli and 2β3 tbsp water to the hot pan. Cover 2β3 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp.
- Push the broccoli aside. Add [[garlic]] garlic and [[ginger]] ginger to the middle and stir 30 seconds.
- If using, add [[pepper]] sliced bell pepper and stir-fry 1β2 minutes.
- Return the meat. Stir the sauce (the cornstarch settles) and pour it in. Toss 1β2 minutes until it thickens and coats everything.
- Add [[scallions]] green onions, toss 30 seconds and take it off the heat. Serve over rice or cauliflower rice.
Notes
- Your numbers: with chicken breast, no rice. 8g fiber.
- Keep the heat high, have everything prepped before you start, and donβt skip cooking the meat in batches, or it steams instead of searing.
- Garlic: the original says 2β4 cloves.
