Steam or sauté the broccoli to softness a bit firmer than you prefer, place in an ice bath to stop the cooking process for about a minute, remove from the ice water with a slotted spoon and & set aside.
Heat a wok over high heat and add the oil. Add chicken in a single layer and let it sit undisturbed for 1 minute to get a good sear.
Add the garlic and ginger to the pan and cook for 30 seconds in the hot wok, adding a little more oil if necessary, tossing now and then.
Stir in the green onion, stir fry sauce and bring to a boil. Once the chicken is cooked through, add the broccoli and cook until it reaches the desired softness before serving.

This recipe moves fast so start cooking your rice first and be sure to prep and chop all of your stir fry ingredients and make the sauce before cooking the stir fry.
Prepare your ingredients before heating your wok. Things move quickly when stir-frying. Having everything cut and measured makes all the difference.
Choose an oil with a high smoke point like canola, vegetable, or Peanut oil.
Use high heat and unless you are using a nonstick pan, heat your pan or wok before adding the oil. This will prevent food from sticking to the pan.
