Preparation

Cut chicken into strips. Combine 2 tbsp (30 mL) each of the teriyaki sauce and cornstarch with garlic and ginger in a small bowl. Add chicken and stir to coat. In a second small bowl combine remaining teriyaki sauce and cornstarch. Stir in chicken broth and hot pepper flakes; set aside.

Melt 3 tbsp (45 mL) butter in a large non-stick frypan over medium-high heat until foamy. Gradually add chicken pieces and stir-fry 5 minutes or until chicken is cooked; removefrom pan. Heat remaining 1 tbsp (15 mL) butter in same pan. Add carrots, snow peas, bean sprouts and onion. Stir-fry 5 minutes or until vegetables are crisp-tender.

Stir chicken and reserved teriyaki sauce mixture into pan. Cook and stir over medium-high heat until mixture boils and thickens. Serve sprinkled with sesame seeds, if desired, over cooked noodles or rice.

Variation:

Substitute boneless skinless turkey breast for chicken. Replace carrots with slivers of red sweet pepper.
