Notes

  • Don’t skip marinating the chicken in cornstarch: It keeps the chicken tender while cooking!
  • Cook on high heat: To get that nice char and keep your veggies crispy. Just remember to keep everything moving in the pan!
  • If you’re making a lot: Consider cooking in batches. This helps prevent steaming and keeps your ingredients nice and crunchy.
