Ingredients:

Serving

2 tbsp cornstarch, divided
1/2 tsp salt
6 fresh boneless skinless chicken thighs , cut into strips
1/4 lb fresh asparagus spear , cut into 2-inch pieces
1 small sweet red pepper, sliced
1 medium onion, sliced
1 garlic clove, minced
2 tbsp oyster sauce
1/2 tsp sesame oil
1 (14 1/2 oz) can chicken broth
1 (8 oz) can sliced water chestnuts, drained
1/4 cup water
hot cooked rice

Directions:

In a medium bowl, combine 1 tablespoon cornstarch and salt. Add chicken and stir to coat. Cover and refrigerate.
Spray a large nonstick skillet with nonstick cooking spray.
Heat over medium high heat.
Add asparagus; cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minutes. Add pepper, onion, garlic, oyster sauce and sesame oil.
Cook, stirring frequently, until vegetables are crisp-tender; about 3 minutes.
Remove from skillet; set aside.
Put chicken in skillet and cook, stirring frequently, about 5 minutes or until juices run clear. Add chicken broth, 1 tablespoon at a time, if needed to prevent over-browning or sticking. When chicken is cooked, add remaining broth and water chestnuts to skillet.
Combine remaining cornstarch and water; add to skillet. Cook and stir until sauce is thickened.
Return vegetables to skillet and heat.
Serve with cooked rice.
