For added flavor, marinate the chicken in a mixture of soy sauce, ginger, and garlic for at least 30 minutes before cooking. Feel free to add other vegetables like bell peppers, broccoli, or snap peas for extra color and nutrition. If you don't have canola oil, vegetable oil or peanut oil can be used as substitutes. A dash of sesame oil at the end adds a nutty aroma and enhances the flavor.
