In med. bowl combine chicken, 2 T. soy sauce, 2 tsp. cornstarch and ginger; toss until well mixed.
In small bowl mix remaining soy sauce, water, sugar & remaining cornstarch. Set aside.
Heat 2 T. salad oil in wok. Add chicken & stir fry over high heat about 4 m. Remove. Add remaining oil & add carrots, onions & stir fry 3 mins; then zucchini (I sometimes add celery & always nuts - cashews are the best, I think) & stir fry 2 more mins. Return chicken & the soy mixture & cook until thickened.
