Ingredients:
2 tbsp + 2 tsp sesame oil, divided
1¾ lbs. boneless skinless chicken breasts, thinly sliced
¼ tsp ground black pepper
2 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp oyster sauce
1 garlic clove, minced
2 tsp peeled and minced fresh ginger root
2 scallions, trimmed and sliced with white and green parts separated4 oz. fresh mushrooms (any kind), sliced
1 medium red bell pepper, seeds and membranes removed, sliced
3 cups zucchini noodles
Directions:
In a large wok or skillet, heat 1 teaspoon sesame oil over medium-high heat. Add the sliced chicken, season with black pepper, and cook until the chicken is done (internal temperature 165⁰F). Remove from wok or skillet and set aside.
While the chicken cooks, prepare the sauce by combining the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and 2 tablespoons of sesame oil in a bowl and whisking together. Set aside.
With the same wok or skillet used to cook the chicken, heat 1 teaspoon sesame oil and add the garlic, ginger, and white scallion pieces; cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the mushrooms and bell peppers and continue to cook until just tender, about 3 minutes. Add zucchini noodles and toss to combine.
Pour in the sauce and add the chicken; cook until zucchini is tender and the mixture is heated through about 3 to 5 minutes.
Garnish with green parts of scallions.
