Categories     dinner, easy, quick, weekday, one pot, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons good-quality vegetable oil
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
4 scallions, chopped
1 pound broccoli, trimmed and cut into bite-size pieces, the stems no more than 1/4-inch thick
8 ounces button mushrooms, cleaned, trimmed and sliced
Salt
1 cup water
8 ounces boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, cut into 1/2- to 3/4-inch chunks or thin slices and blotted dry
2 tablespoons soy sauce
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Put a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat. When it's hot, add half the oil, swirl it around, and immediately add half the garlic and ginger. Cook for 15 seconds, stirring, then add the broccoli, mushrooms and all but a sprinkling of the scallions. Raise heat to high, and cook, stirring, until mushrooms release their water and broccoli is bright green and beginning to brown, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Sprinkle with salt; add 1 cup water. Stir and cook until almost all liquid evaporates and broccoli is almost tender, another minute or two more, then transfer everything to a plate.
  • Turn heat to medium, add remaining oil, then remaining garlic and ginger. Stir, then add chicken and turn heat to high. Cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken has lost its pink color, three to five minutes.
  • Turn heat to medium. Return broccoli, mushrooms and juices to the pan, and stir. Add soy sauce, sprinkle with more salt and some pepper; add a little more water if mixture is dry. Raise heat to high and cook, stirring occasionally, until liquid is reduced slightly and you've scraped up all the bits of chicken. Taste and adjust seasoning, garnish with remaining scallion and serve.

(3) Southeast Asian: Use fish sauce instead of soy sauce and finish with a squeeze of lime. (4) Mediterranean: Use olive oil, skip the ginger, use onion instead of scallion, and substitute 1 T chopped rosemary or thyme. (5) Indian: Use coconut milk instead of water and 1 tablespoon curry powder instead of soy sauce.

1 tablespoon dark sesame oil
1 tablespoon dry sherry

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 pound boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped

Tips:

  • Prep Ahead: Save time by chopping the broccoli, mushrooms, and chicken ahead of time. Store them separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator until ready to use.
  • Use a Wok or Large Skillet: A large cooking surface allows the ingredients to cook evenly and prevents overcrowding.
  • High Heat: Stir-frying requires high heat to quickly cook the vegetables and chicken without overcooking them. If your pan is not hot enough, the ingredients will steam instead of fry.
  • Stir Constantly: Stirring the ingredients frequently prevents them from sticking to the pan and ensures even cooking.
  • Sauce Variations: Feel free to experiment with different sauces. Try using a store-bought stir-fry sauce, or make your own using soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, and ginger.
  • Serve Immediately: Stir-fries are best served immediately after cooking. The vegetables will lose their crispness and the chicken will become tough if they sit for too long.

Conclusion:

This stir-fry is a delicious and healthy meal that can be prepared in under 30 minutes. It's a great way to use up leftover chicken and vegetables, and it's also a good source of protein, vitamins, and minerals. Serve it over rice or noodles for a complete meal.
