Get dinner on the table in under 30 minutes with this Chicken & Broccoli Stir Fry. Tender pieces of marinaded chicken with crisp broccoli and onions in a rich soy sauce.
In a medium bowl combine the chopped leeks, 1/2 of the garlic, 1/2 of the ginger, soy sauce, 1 teaspoon of cornstarch, and sherry. Stir well to combine and add the chicken. Coat well and set aside to marinade for about 15 minutes. Mix remaining cornstarch with 2/3 cups water.
In a large skillet set over medium to high heat, add 1 tablespoon of the oil along with broccoli stems and florets plus remaining garlic and ginger. Give a good toss and add 2-3 tablespoons of water. Stir fry for about 3-5 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
In reserved skillet set over high heat, add remaining oil. Add the chicken and chili flakes. Cook, tossing regularly, for about 7 minutes. Return the broccoli to the chicken and toss really well. Stir in remaining cornstarch mixture and bring to a boil. Cook for a further 2-3 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
Remove from heat, serve over rice and garnish with sesame seeds.
