How to Make Chicken And Broccoli Stir Fry With Variations

  1. **Whisk the Sauce:** In a small bowl, whisk together [sauce ingredients - see below for measurements]. Set aside.
  2. **Prep Ingredients:** Prepare all ingredients and have them within easy reach of your wok or large skillet.
  3. **Marinate Chicken:** In a medium bowl, combine [chicken amount] chicken (or turkey/shrimp) with 1 tbsp rice wine and 1/2 tsp salt. Lightly beat 1 large egg and stir into the chicken mixture. Sprinkle with 1 tbsp cornstarch. Let marinate for 20 minutes.
  4. **Stir-fry Chicken:** Heat [oil amount] oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and stir-fry until browned and cooked through (about 5-7 minutes for chicken, less for shrimp). Remove chicken from wok and set aside. Drain excess oil.
