Preparation
- Cut the chicken into bite-size pieces. In a mixing bowl, add the chicken marinade ingredients. Combine well and set aside to marinate for half an hour.
- In a cooking pan or wok, add cooking oil and heat it up on medium high.
- Add garlic and chicken along with all the marinade sauce, and stir fry for about 2 minutes or until chicken is no longer translucent. Remove chicken from the heat and set aside, trying to keep the sauce in the pan.
- If the pan is too dry, add a little more cooking oil. Then, add zucchini and stir fry for about 5 minutes or until zucchini starts getting tender.
- Return the chicken to the pan, add oyster sauce, and sprinkle with ground black pepper (optional). Stir fry for about another 2-3 minutes until chicken is cooked thoroughly and zucchini is tender.
- Remove from heat and serve!
