Instructions

Prep the Ingredients: Slice the chicken breasts and trim the green beans. Mince the garlic and ginger.
Cook the Chicken: In a large skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken strips and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Sauté the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of oil. Add the garlic, ginger, and green beans. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the green beans are tender-crisp.

Serve: Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot over cooked rice or noodles.
