Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Start by rinsing your rice under cold water until it runs clear. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil, then add the rice. Cook for about 15 minutes or until tender, then drain and set aside.
  2. In a large skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Sauté diced chicken for about 5–7 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. Set aside.
  3. In the same pan, heat 1 tablespoon of sesame oil. Add sliced onions and minced garlic, sauté for about 2–3 minutes until fragrant and translucent.
  4. Add broccoli and mushrooms to the skillet. Stir-fry for 4–5 minutes until broccoli is bright green and tender-crisp.
  5. Return the cooked chicken. Pour in soy sauce and oyster sauce, stir gently to coat and reheat for an additional 2 minutes.
  6. Mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water. Pour into the skillet while stirring continuously until the sauce thickens.
  7. Serve the stir-fry over steamed rice, garnished with sesame seeds or chopped green onions if desired.
