Step 1

Mix all Marinade ingredients, add Chicken and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, but no more than 1 hour. Remove Chicken from marinade and pat dry, discard marinade.

Drain all canned Ingredients. Prepare all Stir-Fry ingredients and mix Sauce ingredients. Set both aside in preparation for cooking.

Heat 1 T Canola Oil in a wok or large skillet until shimmering and cook Chicken, moving frequently until it has turned golden brown on all sides, about 3 minutes. Remove Chicken and set aside.

Add an additional 1 T Oil. When oil begins to shimmer, add Onion and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Add Garlic and Ginger, cook an additional 30 seconds. Add the Red Bell Pepper, Broccoli and Carrots, cook until they have softened, about 5 minutes.

Return Chicken to pan, add Mushrooms, Bamboo Shoots, Water Chestnuts and Sauce. Cook for 2 minutes until sauce begins to bubble and thicken.
