=== Ingredients ===
* '''Chicken & Prep:'''
** 1 lb Chicken breast, thinly sliced
** 1 tsp Cornstarch
** 1 pinch Salt
* '''The Clingy Sauce:'''
** 1/2 cup Broth (Chicken or Beef)
** 3 tbsp Oyster sauce
** 2 tbsp Soy sauce
** 1 tbsp Brown sugar
** 1 tbsp Cornstarch
** 1 tbsp Rice vinegar
** 1 tsp Toasted sesame oil
** 1/2 tsp Chinese Five Spice
* '''Aromatics:'''
** 3 cloves Garlic, minced
** 1 tsp Fresh ginger, grated
** 1 pinch Red pepper flakes
* '''Vegetables:'''
** 3–4 cups total of broccoli florets, sliced carrots, and snap peas.

=== Instructions ===
# '''Velvet the Chicken:''' In a small bowl, toss the sliced chicken with 1 tsp cornstarch and salt. Let it rest while prepping other ingredients to lock in moisture.
# '''Sear the Meat:''' Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large skillet or wok over '''high heat'''. Add chicken and cook until just opaque (about 3 minutes). Remove chicken from the pan and set aside on a plate.
# '''Steam-Fry Veggies:''' Add a splash of oil to the same pan. Stir-fry vegetables for 2 minutes. Pour in '''2 tbsp water''' and immediately cover with a lid for 60–90 seconds. This removes the raw crunch without making them squashy.
# '''Sauté Aromatics:''' Remove the lid. Push vegetables to the side of the pan. Add the minced garlic, grated ginger, and pepper flakes to the center. Cook for 30 seconds until very fragrant.
# '''Combine:''' Return the chicken (and any juices from the plate) to the pan.
# '''Thicken and Finish:''' Give the sauce mixture a final whisk and pour it over the chicken and vegetables. Toss constantly for 1–2 minutes until the sauce is dark, glossy, and thick.
