1. Prepare Ingredients: Begin by slicing the chicken, vegetables, and mincing the garlic and ginger.
2. Make the Sauce: In a small bowl, mix together soy sauce, oyster sauce, cornstarch, and chicken broth. Set aside.
3. Heat the Oil: In a large pan or wok, heat the vegetable oil over high heat until it’s hot but not smoking.
4. Cook the Chicken: Add the sliced chicken to the pan and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until it’s golden brown and cooked through.
