Ingredients for sauce:
1/3 cup Soy Sauce
¾ cup Chicken Broth
1/3 cup Rice Wine
3 ½ TBL Sugar
1 TBL Sesame Oil
¼ tsp Pepper
2 cloves Garlic, minced
½ tsp Ground Ginger
2 TBL Corn Starch
¼ cup Water
Ingredients For Stir-Fry:
White Rice
Chicken, cut up into small strips or cubes
Broccoli

Directions:
Cook rice according to package directions.
Meanwhile make the sauce. In one of our handmade medium bowls, combine soy sauce, broth, rice wine, sugar, sesame oil, and pepper. In one of our small handmade bowls dissolve the corn starch in the water. In a medium pan over medium heat add a small amount of cooking oil (I use about ½ tsp olive oil) add garlic and cook until fragrant. Add soy sauce mixture and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook for an additional minute. Add the cornstarch mixture and cook and stir until sauce is nice and thick.
While the sauce and rice are cooking in a wok or large pan heat a small amount of oil on medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook and stir until it begins to brown, add vegetables and cook until tender crisp. Pour sauce over meat and vegetables and stir well until completely coated and mixed in, remove from heat.
To serve use one of our handmade plates and place stir-fry top of a bed of rice and enjoy!
