For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a tablespoon of oyster sauce to the sauce mixture. If you prefer a spicier dish, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of chili garlic sauce. Toasted sesame oil can be used instead of vegetable oil for a nuttier flavor. Ensure chicken is diced evenly to promote consistent cooking. Adjust salt and pepper to your personal preference. Consider the sodium content of your broth and soy sauce. Garnish with chopped green onions for a pop of color and fresh flavor.
