Method
 

  1. Consider tenderising chicken breast using baking soda (not needed for thigh).
  2. Steam or boil broccoli until cooked to your taste, then drain well.
  3. Mix cornflour and soy sauce until lump free, then mix in remaining sauce ingredients.
  4. Heat oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add garlic and onion, stir for 10 seconds until garlic starts to go golden.
  5. Add chicken and cook for 2 minutes or until the chicken is just cooked through.
