- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
- 1 cup snap peas
- 1 medium carrot, julienned
- 1 small onion, sliced
- 2 tbsps olive oil (or sesame oil)
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tbsps soy sauce

- 1 tbsp oyster sauce (optional)
- 1 tsp sesame oil (for flavor)
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- Green onions and sesame seeds (for garnish)

Instructions
- Griddle Preparation: Heat Blackstone griddle to medium-high, creating an optimal cooking surface for stir fry.
- Protein Searing: Drizzle olive oil, add chicken, and season with salt and pepper. Cook until golden and fully done, developing rich caramelized edges.
- Vegetable Infusion: Slide chicken aside and introduce colorful vegetables – broccoli, bell peppers, snap peas, carrots, onion, and garlic. Stir fry until vegetables reach vibrant, crisp-tender texture.
- Sauce Integration: Whisk soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, and sesame oil in a separate bowl. Pour sauce over griddle mixture, ensuring complete flavor coating of chicken and vegetables.
- Final Fusion: Combine all ingredients, allowing sauce to glaze and heat thoroughly for 1-2 minutes, creating a harmonious blend of textures and flavors.
- Presentation: Sprinkle chopped green onions and sesame seeds as a fresh, aromatic garnish. Serve immediately over steamed rice or noodles for a complete meal experience.
Notes
- Slice chicken into uniform, thin pieces to ensure even cooking and prevent dryness, creating tender and juicy meat throughout the stir fry.
- Maintain medium-high temperature to achieve perfect sear on chicken and crisp vegetables without burning, allowing quick caramelization and preserving vibrant colors.
- Stir fry vegetables briefly to retain their natural crispness and nutritional value, avoiding overcooking that leads to soggy, limp, and flavorless ingredients.
- Whisk sauce ingredients thoroughly and add gradually, ensuring even coating and preventing overwhelming or unbalanced flavor profiles in the final dish.
