Ingredients
For the Stir Fry
- Chicken Breasts - 20 ounces (1.25 lbs.) of boneless, skinless chicken breasts. I used 5 4-ounce chicken breasts.
- Olive Oil - 1/2 tablespoon - To cook your chicken in. If you use a HexClad, you don't even need that much oil!
- Sesame Seed Oil - 1/2 a tablespoon to sauté your veggies in. You can use more olive oil instead, but the sesame seed oil gives this stir fry the most delicious flavor in my opinion!
- Minced Ginger - 1/2 a teaspoon of fresh minced ginger, or to taste.
- Minced Garlic - I used 1 heaping teaspoon of minced garlic but measure with your heart!
- Red Bell Pepper - 1 red bell pepper, sliced into thin strips. You can use any color of bell pepper!
- Snap Peas - 6 ounces of fresh snap peas.
- Broccoli - 4 ounces of chopped broccoli florets.
- Mushrooms - 4 oz. sliced white mushrooms.
- Garlic Salt & Pepper - 1 teaspoon of each, or to taste.
- Red Pepper Flakes- Use as little or as much as you would like! I like my stir fry to have a little bit of a kick to it.
** Feel free to switch up any of the veggies! This is just my favorite combo!
For the Sauce:
- Soy Sauce - 1/8 cup low sodium soy sauce
- Oyster Sauce - 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- Ponzu Sauce - 1 tablespoon. You can also just use additional soy sauce. I find that Ponzu sauce gives more of a tang and the citrus flavors in it really make the sauce!
- Water - To thin out the sauce from the thickness of the oyster sauce. You only need about a tablespoon.
How To Make It
- Preheat a large wok over medium/high heat with the 1/2 tbsp olive oil.
- Season your chicken to taste with garlic salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes, to taste. Add your chicken to your hot wok and cook until the chicken is fully cooked, about 12 minutes.
- While your chicken is cooking, make your sauce. Whisk all the ingredients for the sauce together and set aside.
- Set the chicken onto a plate and set aside. Drizzle the sesame seed oil in your wok and sauté your garlic & ginger until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
- Add in your red bell pepper, snap peas, and broccoli. Sauté for about 4-5 minutes and then add your mushrooms. Cook for another 2 minutes.
- Add your chicken back into your wok. Reduce the heat to low and add your sauce. Let simmer for 5 minutes and enjoy!!

How To Store Leftovers
You can store your leftover chicken stir fry in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. If you make rice with this stir fry I would recommend keeping the rice separate so that the juices don't soak into the rice and take away flavor from your chicken & veggies.
