Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 450 grams Boneless chicken breast (or pork, shrimp, or beef)
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 0.5 cup Water
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 medium Onion, sliced
- 1 large Carrot, julienned
- 2 stalks Celery stalks, sliced
- 2 cups Cabbage, shredded
- 1 cup Bean sprouts
- 1 large Bell pepper, sliced (any color)
- 1 cup Chicken stock
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
Slice the chicken (or alternative protein) into thin strips and place in a bowl.
In the bowl, combine 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of cornstarch, and a pinch of black pepper with the chicken. Mix well to coat the meat evenly. Let it marinate for 10 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix the remaining soy sauce, oyster sauce, and water to create the sauce. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and stir-fry until cooked through, about 4-5 minutes. Remove from the wok and set aside.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the wok. Add the minced garlic and sliced onions. Stir-fry for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the carrots, celery, bell pepper, and cabbage to the wok. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Stir in the chicken stock, prepared sauce mixture, and cooked chicken. Toss everything together and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes.
Add the bean sprouts, and stir everything well to combine. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
Season with salt and additional black pepper to taste.
Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles and enjoy your homemade Chop Suey!
