Ingredients

  • 12 oz chicken breast cut into small pieces
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 egg lightly beaten
  • 2 tbsp corn starch
  • 1 tbsp canola oil
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil

  • 2 cups fresh green beans trimmed
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce

Instructions

  • Add the sliced baby portabello mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for about 5 minutes until tender.
  • Stir in the fresh green beans and cook for another 3-4 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp.
  • Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, pour in the soy sauce and balsamic vinegar, and toss everything together.
