How to Make American Chicken Broccoli Stir Fry
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large, nonstick skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
- Add the chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, for 4-5 minutes, or until browned and cooked through. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- Add the broccoli, celery, carrots, and red bell pepper to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, or until the vegetables are crisp-tender.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch slurry, chicken broth, soy sauce, apricot jelly, and red pepper flakes.
- Pour the sauce into the skillet and bring to a simmer, stirring constantly.
- Return the cooked chicken to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened and become glossy, coating the chicken and vegetables evenly.
- Season with salt to taste. Add more red pepper flakes if desired.
- Divide the stir-fry among four plates. Garnish each serving with 1 tablespoon of sliced scallions.
