For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of rice vinegar or a drizzle of honey to the sauce. If you don't have fresh broccoli on hand, frozen broccoli florets can be used. Be sure to thaw them completely and pat them dry before stir-frying. Adjust the amount of crushed red pepper to suit your spice preference. Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions for a beautiful presentation.

Follow The Directions
01
StepIn a glass bowl or zip-top bag, combine soy sauce and 1 tablespoon cornstarch. Add chicken, ensuring it's well coated. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. (30 minutes +)
02
StepIn a separate bowl, dissolve bouillon granules in boiling water. Stir in the remaining cornstarch and ginger until well combined. Set aside. (5 minutes)
03
StepHeat half of the canola oil and 1 tablespoon sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add broccoli, bell peppers, onion, and garlic. Stir-fry until the vegetables are crisp-tender. (5-7 minutes)
04
StepRemove the vegetables from the skillet and set aside. Add the remaining canola oil and sesame oil to the skillet. Add the marinated chicken and crushed red pepper. Stir-fry until the chicken is cooked through. (7-10 minutes)
05
StepReturn the vegetables to the skillet. Pour in the bouillon mixture and stir until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken and vegetables evenly. (3-5 minutes)

Aug 9, 2024I found that marinating the chicken for longer than 30 minutes really enhanced the flavor. I prepped it in the morning and cooked it in the evening.
