Chicken and Vegetables with Oyster Sauce

This chicken and vegetables with oyster sauce is an easy-to-prepare and delicious dish, not to mention it is also healthy.  As always, since I was not sure what to cook again after work, I did not want to go to the grocery store and take-out food was not an option. So, here you go again, checked the refrigerator, freezer and cupboard and this what I came up with.

Ingredients:
  • 2 lbs. Boneless and Skinless Chicken Thigh (washed and cut into serving pieces)
  • 1 Zucchini (washed, cut in half lengthwise and sliced diagonally)
  • 1/2 Green Bell Pepper (washed and cut into serving pieces diagonally)
  • 1/2 Red Bell Pepper (washed and cut into serving pieces diagonally)
  • 1 can Button Mushrooms (halved or whole)
  • 1 can Baby or Young Corn
  • 4 cloves Garlic (minced)
  • 1 medium Onion (sliced)
  • 3 tbsp. Oyster Sauce
  • 2 tbsp. Cornstarch
  • 1 cup Water
  • 2 tbsp. Canola Oil
  • Salt and Pepper to taste
Let's Cook!
  1. In a pan, over medium heat, add oil.
  2. When oil is hot enough, saute garlic and onion until translucent.
  3. Add in chicken, season with salt and pepper, then simmer for 5 minutes.
  4. Pour in oyster sauce and water. Mix well. Simmer for another 3 minutes.
  5. Put in button mushrooms, baby corn and zucchini. Stir and simmer for 2 minutes.
  6. Add cornstarch diluted in 4tbsp water.
  7. Toss in green and red bell peppers and adjust seasonings. Mix well.
