Slice chicken on the diagonal into 1/4 in thick strips. (to make this step simpler pop whole breasts into the freezer for about 10 min.) Heat oil in a heavy skillet over moderate heat, add chicken and cook until lightly browned. Add garlic and ginger, sautee for approx 2-3 min. Begin adding veggies according to how long they cook-- finished dish should retain the crispness of the veg. Begin with broccoli, then add carrots, onion, corn, water chestnuts, snow peas, red peppers and scallions. Add soy sauce and black pepper to taste. Total cooking time from the time you start adding veggies should be about 5-7 minutes.
