DIRECTIONS

  1. Heat two tablespoons of olive in a skillet on medium to high heat. Add the mushrooms, broccoli, and bell pepper to the heated oil. Cook this for five to six minutes till the vegetables appear to be tender and cooked properly.

  3. Clean and wipe the pan and then add another tablespoon of oil over on high flame. Add the chicken to the pan in one layer and add salt and pepper to taste. Cook the chicken for three to four minutes on each side till the chicken has a brown color and is cooked properly.

  1. Lower the heat of the pan and add the minced garlic to the fried chicken. Cook for another 30 seconds so that the garlic leaves it flavor on the chicken. When the chicken and garlic is cooked through and leave a smell of garlic, add the vegetables, kept aside back to the pan. Add your preferred seasoning to the chicken and vegetables. Let it cook for one minute.
  2. In the meantime, take a bowl and add sugar, chicken broth, sesame oil, soy sauce, and cornstarch. Whisk it properly to form a consistent mixture. Pour this mixture over the cooked chicken and vegetables and simmer the flame. Keep it for one to two minutes until the sauce is thick enough.
