Here's a recipe for a flavorful chicken and vegetable stir-fry:

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 green pepper, chopped
  • 1 red pepper, chopped
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 cup carrots, sliced
  • 1/2 cup mushrooms, sliced
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions:

  1. In a large bowl, combine the chicken, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat.
  2. Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook, stirring constantly, until browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add the onion, green pepper, red pepper, broccoli, carrots, and mushrooms to the skillet. Cook, stirring constantly, until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, chicken broth, cornstarch, sesame oil, ginger, and garlic powder. Add the sauce to the skillet and cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce has thickened, about 1 minute.
  5. Serve immediately over rice or noodles.

Tips:

  • To make the stir-fry more flavorful, you can marinate the chicken in the soy sauce, ginger, and garlic powder for 30 minutes before cooking.
  • You can use any vegetables you like in this stir-fry. Some other good options include snow peas, snap peas, and zucchini.
  • If you don't have cornstarch, you can substitute it with all-purpose flour.
  • To make the stir-fry more authentic, you can use a wok instead of a skillet. A wok is a traditional Chinese cooking vessel that is ideal for stir-fries because it has a large surface area and high heat retention.
  • Serve the stir-fry with rice or noodles for a complete meal.
