Heat the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil in the wok until it begins to smoke. Stir in the garlic, and cook for a few seconds until it turns golden brown. Add the chicken, and cook for about 5 minutes or until there is no pink in the center of the chicken.
In a small bowl, stir cornstarch, sugar, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and chicken broth. Pour over the chicken, and bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Boil for about 30 seconds until the sauce thickens and is no longer cloudy.
Return the vegetables to the wok/skillet, and toss with the sauce until all coated. Serve immediately and ENJOY!
