  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the thinly sliced chicken breast with soy sauce, cornstarch, and minced garlic. Toss until fully coated and let sit for 10 minutes.
  2. Heat neutral cooking oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook marinated chicken for 6-8 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
