Pea Shoots And Chicken In Garlic Sauce - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into thin strips
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 1/2 teaspoons sesame oil
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 bunch pea shoots, trimmed
3/4 cup chicken broth
salt and black pepper to taste

Preparation

Toss the strips of chicken breast with the cornstarch in a mixing bowl. Sprinkle with the sesame oil and toss until evenly mixed.
Heat the vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Stir in the chicken and cook until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant. Stir in the pea shoots just until wilted; pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Cook and stir a few minutes until the chicken broth has thickened. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
