• 3 tbsp soy sauce
• 3 tbsp oyster sauce

• Oil for frying
• Water
• 1 tbsp cornstarch for binding

• Paprika powder

Instructions

Working time approx. 25 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 15 minutes; Total time approx. 40 minutes

Cut the carrots and zucchini into sticks, quarter and remove the leaves from the onions, and trim the broccoli. Cut the oyster mushrooms into bite-sized pieces. Finely chop the chili and garlic. Wash the chicken breast, cut into thin strips, and marinate with salt, pepper, paprika, 1 tablespoon of oil (peanut oil is best), and 1 tablespoon of soy sauce. Cut the carrots and zucchini into sticks, quarter and remove the leaves from the onions, and trim the broccoli. Cut the oyster mushrooms into bite-sized pieces. Finely chop the chili and garlic. First, heat the wok and fry the chicken until it browns. Then remove the meat from the wok and keep warm. Add a little more oil to the wok and fry the broccoli. Add 2 tablespoons of water to soften the broccoli. When the broccoli is cooking again, add the carrots, onions, oyster mushrooms, zucchini, chili, and garlic, one at a time, preferably one at a time. It should always be cooked with a little oil. Season the vegetables with salt and pepper. Don’t add too much salt, as the oyster sauce and soy sauce will be added later. Now deglaze with the beef broth and season to taste with the oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, and the remaining soy sauce. Return the chicken to the wok and simmer for 3 minutes. Mix 30 ml of water with a tablespoon of cornstarch. Add the water and starch mixture to the sauce and let it thicken until the desired consistency is reached. Best served with basmati rice. Also delicious with other vegetables such as peppers and mushrooms.
