Shiitake Chicken Stir-Fry

Ingredients:

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into thin strips

2 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon cornstarch

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

1 cup shiitake mushrooms, sliced

1 cup broccoli florets

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced

1/4 cup chicken broth

2 tablespoons oyster sauce

1 teaspoon sesame oil

Salt and pepper to taste

Green onions for garnish (optional)

Instructions:

1. Marinate the chicken:

In a bowl, combine the chicken strips, soy sauce, and cornstarch. Mix well and let marinate for 15 minutes.

2. Cook the chicken:

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

3. Sauté vegetables:

Add the shiitake mushrooms, broccoli florets, garlic, and ginger to the same skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables start to soften.

4. Add sauce:

Pour in the chicken broth, oyster sauce, and sesame oil. Bring to a simmer and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

5. Combine ingredients:

Add the cooked chicken back to the skillet and stir to combine with the vegetables and sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

6. Serve:

Garnish with green onions, if desired, and serve with rice.
