Instructions
Prepare the Sauce:
- In a small bowl, whisk together the chicken broth, light soy sauce, vegetarian oyster sauce, sesame oil, and honey. Set aside.
Prepare the chicken and the rest of the ingredients:
- Cut the chicken into small bite-size pieces. Add cornstarch, salt and pepper. Mix well and set aside.
- Cut the broccoli into small bite-size pieces.
- Mince the garlic and the onion.
Cook the Chicken:
- Heat a large pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add a bit of oil, then add the chicken pieces.
- Cook for 7 minutes until the chicken is browned, crispy, and cooked through.
- Remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside.
Stir Fry the Aromatics:
- In the same pan, add a little more oil if needed. Add the minced garlic and onion.
- Stir fry for about 1 minute until fragrant. Remove and set aside.
Cook the Broccoli:
- Add the broccoli to the pan. Add a splash of water and cover with a lid to steam the broccoli.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes until it starts to become tender but still crisp.
Combine and Serve:
- Return the chicken, garlic, and onions back to the pan.
- Add the sauce.
- Toss everything together, making sure the chicken and broccoli are evenly coated with the sauce. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce has thickened slightly.

Notes
- Mise en place - make sure everything is ready before cooking. It comes together really fast.
- Make sure the chicken is crispy and fully cooked before removing it from the pan. Brown bits mean extra flavor.
- Add a splash of water to the broccoli and cover with a lid to steam it.
