Instructions
Step 1: Cook the Chicken
Start by heating a little oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the sliced chicken and sauté until browned and cooked through. This should take about 6-7 minutes. Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the pan and set it aside.
Step 2: Sauté the Aromatics
In the same skillet, add a bit more oil if necessary. Toss in the minced garlic and grated ginger. Stir-fry for about 1 minute until fragrant. This step adds a wonderful depth of flavor to your dish.
Step 3: Stir-fry the Vegetables
Next, add the onion, bell peppers, carrots, mushrooms, and celery to the pan. Stir-fry for about 5-7 minutes, ensuring the veggies are tender but still crisp.
Step 4: Add the Chicken Back In
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and stir to combine. At this point, the kitchen will be filled with delicious aromas!
Step 5: Add the Bean Sprouts and Sauce
Now, add the bean sprouts and mix everything together. In a separate bowl, combine the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and the cornstarch mixture. Pour this sauce over the chicken and vegetables. Stir constantly until the sauce thickens (about 2-3 minutes).
Step 6: Taste and Adjust
Taste your dish and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper to your preference.
Step 7: Serve and Enjoy
Serve your Chop Suey Chino hot over a bed of cooked rice. It’s as simple as that!
