Preparation

Step 1

Heat a wok over medium-high heat. Add the oil, garlic, black beans, ginger and salt, and toss and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute. Raise the heat to high, add the asparagus, onion and bell pepper, and toss and stir until coated with oil and seared, about 1 minute.

Add the chicken and toss and stir until opaque and firm, about 2 minutes. Add the broth, soy sauce, sugar and chili, bring to a boil, cover, and cook until the asparagus is tender but still crunchy, about 1 minute more. Add the cornstarch mixture and oyster sauce, if using, and cook, stirring continuously, until the sauce thickens, about 30 seconds. Stir in the sesame oil and serve hot.
