A colorful and flavorful stir-fried dish featuring tender chicken and a medley of vibrant vegetables, perfect for a hearty dinner.

Ingredients

• 1 pound chicken pieces
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon sherry
• 2 teaspoons cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 medium zucchini
• 1 medium bell pepper
• 1 cup broccoli florets
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 2 tablespoons green onions

Method

1. In a large bowl, mix chicken pieces with soy sauce, sherry, and cornstarch until they are thoroughly coated.
2. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add sliced zucchini, bell pepper, broccoli florets, and minced garlic. Sauté for 2 to 3 minutes until the veggies are just starting to soften.
3. Pour in the chicken broth, cover the skillet, and let it simmer for 4 to 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender. Afterward, transfer the veggies to a bowl and clean the skillet.
4. Return the skillet to the heat and add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil. Cook the marinated chicken for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently until it is cooked through and no longer pink.
5. Once the chicken is done, add the sautéed vegetables back into the skillet. Stir everything together for an additional 2 to 3 minutes, ensuring a good mix. Garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
