Ingredients
For Chicken
- ½ pound chicken breast boneless and skinless, thinly sliced
- 1 egg white
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
For Chop Suey
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 medium onion thinly sliced
- 1 medium bell pepper sliced in strips
- 2 cups mixed vegetables like carrots, snow peas, broccoli or baby corn, bite sized
- ¼ cup soy sauce low sodium
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup chicken broth low sodium or no sodium added
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch mixed with 4 tablespoons of water
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 egg white, 1 tablespoon cornstarch, and 1 tablespoon soy sauce until smooth. Add the thinly sliced chicken breast to the bowl, ensuring each piece is coated. Allow it to marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a skillet or wok over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook for 2-3 minutes, just until the chicken turns opaque. Remove from heat and set aside.
- In the same skillet or wok, heat an additional tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add garlic and onion, stir-frying until the onion becomes translucent, about 2 minutes.
- Add the bell pepper and mixed vegetables. Continue stir-frying for 3-4 minutes. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and mix well.
- Pour in ¼ cup soy sauce and 2 tablespoons oyster sauce. Add 1 teaspoon sugar, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir everything to combine.
- Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a simmer. Gradually add the cornstarch-water mixture, stirring continuously, until the sauce thickens, about 2 minutes.
- Remove from heat and serve with cooked rice.

Notes
- Nutritional information does not include rice.
- Customize the Veggies: Feel free to switch up the vegetables based on what you have on hand or your preferences.
- Thinly Slice Chicken: For the best texture and quick cooking, slice the chicken breast as thinly as possible.
- Stir-Fry Quickly: Keep the ingredients moving in the pan for a crisp-tender texture in your veggies and to prevent the chicken from drying out.
- Adjust Sauce to Taste: Don’t hesitate to tweak the sauce ingredients to suit your taste buds. More soy sauce for saltiness, sugar for sweetness, or water to thin it out.
