Measure out 12 ounces of chicken.

Cut the chicken against the grain into approximately 1/8-inch pieces at an angle to ensure tenderness.

Add 1 teaspoon of cornstarch to the chicken.

Add 1.5 teaspoons of oil to the chicken.

Massage the chicken until all the water is absorbed.

Let the chicken marinate for at least 20 minutes; it can also be refrigerated overnight.

Cut the broccoli into bite-sized florets. Stems can be used or discarded based on preference.
11
Smash and roughly chop two cloves of garlic.

Grate about a quarter teaspoon of ginger using a microplane, or smash it.
