Ingredients

5 ½ cups broccoli florets
1 carrot, thinly sliced
2 teaspoons water
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon chicken bouillon granules, or to taste
salt to taste
2 tablespoons peanut oil

Directions

1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add broccoli and cook uncovered until bright green, about 2 minutes. Transfer broccoli to a bowl of ice water using a slotted spoon and immerse for several minutes to stop the cooking process. Drain.
2. Bring water back to a boil in the same large pot; add sliced carrot and cook for 1 minute. Drain.
3. Mix water and cornstarch together in a bowl until smooth. Add chicken granules and salt and mix well.
4. Heat peanut oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat; saute broccoli and carrots for 2 minutes. Add cornstarch mixture; cook and stir until vegetables are coated evenly, 1 to 2 minutes.
