Chicken Broccoli Stir Fry (extra sauce!)

Recipe video above. Big batch stir fry made with chicken and broccoli, and lots and lots of sauce - because broccoli florets hold lots of sauce but I still want some to soak my rice!This sauce uses the minimum ingredients you can get away with but still make something that stacks up to real Chinese take out. Chinese cooking wine (shoaxing wine) is the restaurant secret - just a small splash adds depth of flavour into the sauce.Shortcut using Charlie - see Note 5 (the sauce in this recipe is basically Charlie!).

📝 Preparation Steps

Tenderise chicken: Consider tenderising chicken breast using this method. (Not needed for thigh)

Broccoli: steam or boil using preferred method until cooked to your taste (it won't cook any further in the stir fry). I usually microwave steam ⏱️ 3 minutes on high. Drain well (waterlogged florets = diluted sauce).

Sauce: Mix cornflour and soy sauce until lump free, then mix in remaining ingredients.

Cook aromatics: Heat oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add garlic and onion, stir for ⏱️ 10 seconds until garlic starts to go golden.

sesame oil (, toasted (Note 5))2 tspoil (, peanut, vegetable or canola)2 tbsponion (, sliced)1/2

Cook chicken: Add chicken and cook for ⏱️ 2 minutes or until the chicken is just cooked through.

Thicken sauce: Add broccoli, Sauce and water. Stir well and cook for 1 to ⏱️ 2 minutes until the Sauce thickens and becomes glossy, and coats the ingredients.

Serve over rice!
