Chicken Stir-Fry

To make a quick chicken stir-fry, start by heating sesame oil in a pan. Sauté minced garlic and ginger for about a minute, then add thinly sliced chicken breasts and cook until browned. Next, add your choice of vegetables like broccoli, bell pepper, and carrot, and stir-fry for about 5 minutes. Finally, stir in soy sauce and oyster sauce, cooking for an additional 2 minutes. Serve your stir-fry over rice or noodles for a complete meal.
