Equipment

Ingredients

  • ½ pound skinless boneless chicken breasts
  • 4 ounces button mushrooms
  • 2 teaspoons vegetable oil

For the chicken marinade:

  • ½ Tablespoon regular soy sauce
  • ½ Tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 Tablespoon cornstarch
  • ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda

For the stir-fry sauce:

  • 4 teaspoons jarred minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 Tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 Tablespoon oyster sauce
  • ½ Tablespoon cornstarch
  • 2 Tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
  • ½ cup chicken broth

Instructions
 

  • On a cutting board, slice or dice the chicken and mushrooms.
  • Transfer the sliced chicken to a large bowl. Add the marinade ingredients. Mix well and set aside to marinate for at least 20 minutes.
  • In a separate small bowl, combine the stir-fry sauce ingredients.
  • In a large nonstick frying pan on medium-high heat, add 1 teaspoon of cooking oil. Once the oil is hot, fry the chicken until cooked through, about 2-3 minutes. Remove and set aside.
  • Reduce the heat to medium heat and add 1 teaspoon of cooking oil. Fry the mushrooms for 1 minute.
  • Pour in the stir-fry sauce, and mix with the mushrooms. Allow this to simmer and thicken.
  • Once the sauce is thickened, toss in the cooked chicken. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • You can use skinless boneless chicken thighs instead of chicken breasts.
  • You can use dark soy sauce or light soy sauce.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 4-5 days.
