• 1/2 cup chicken broth
• 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 inch fresh ginger, minced
• 1 cup sliced mushrooms

• 1 cup sliced carrots
• 1 cup snow peas

• 1/2 cup sliced bamboo shoots
• 1/2 teaspoon salt

Directions

1. In a bowl, combine the sliced chicken, cornstarch, soy sauce, and rice wine. Stir well to coat the chicken evenly. Let it marinate for 10 minutes.

3. Heat the vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and ginger and stir-fry for 1 minute until fragrant.
4. Add the marinated chicken to the wok and stir-fry for 5-6 minutes until cooked through and no longer pink.
5. Add the mushrooms, broccoli, carrots, snow peas, water chestnuts, and bamboo shoots to the wok. Stir-fry for another 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are crisp-tender.
6. Pour the sauce mixture over the chicken and vegetables. Stir well to coat everything evenly. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens.
7. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
8. Remove from heat and serve the Moo Goo Gai Pan II hot with steamed rice or noodles.
