Stir-Fry Chicken with Mushrooms: A Simple One-Pot Lunch

Today's lunch menu features a delicious one-pot meal as I'll be dining alone. Cooking for myself can be challenging, as I aim to create a balanced meal with protein, fiber, and vegetables while limiting the variety. For this reason, I've prepared a delightful stir-fried chicken with mushrooms dish for my midday meal. The preparation of this dish follows the standard stir-fry method. However, while chicken thighs are more commonly used in stir-frying, I intentionally opted for chicken breasts this time. ======================================= Recipe: (Please download the recipe and read the full details at https://tasteasianfood.com/stir-fry-c... ) Ingredients A 300g chicken breasts meat 2 tsp light soy sauce 1/4 tsp ground white pepper 2 tsp cooking oil Ingredients B 2 tsp chopped garlic 3 dried Shitake mushrooms 10 snow peas 8 baby corns 3 stalks Gai Lan Ingredients C 1 tbsp cornstarch 2 tsp cooking oil Ingredeints D (sauce) 1 tbsp light soy sauce 2 tbsp oyster sauce 1 tbsp Shaoxing wind 2 tsp sesame oil 1/2 tsp salt 1 tsp cornstarch 2 tbsp cold water Method: Begin by cutting the chicken breast meat into thin strips, about 1 to 1.5 inches in length and 1/3 of an inch thick. Marinate the chicken with Ingredients A. Prepare the chopped garlic, cut the baby corn in half, soak the dry shiitake mushrooms until they become soft and plump, cut the snow peas diagonally, and remove their fiber strings. Mix a tablespoon of cornstarch with the marinated meat, then add a teaspoon of oil to separate the chicken pieces. Heat some oil in a nonstick pan over medium heat. Place the chicken in a single layer and pan-fry until both sides turn slightly brown. Remove from the pan. Add more oil and sauté the chopped garlic in a separate wok un. Add the Gai Lan and stir-fry until the leaves begin to wilt. Include the soaked shiitake mushrooms, baby corn, and snow peas to the wok, stirring until all the vegetables are cooked. Return the cooked chicken to the wok, mixing it with the vegetables. Pour in the stir-fry sauce you prepared earlier and combine it with the other ingredients in the wok. Increase the heat to high, ensuring the sauce is thoroughly mixed and evenly coats all ingredients. Once the flavors have melded together, dish out the delightful stir-fry, ready to be savored and enjoyed. ======================================= Website: https://tasteasianfood.com/   / tasteofasianfood     / kwankapang     / kwankapang     / kwankapang
