Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Chicken breast
- 250 grams Button mushrooms
- 3 pieces Garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon Chili flakes
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 2 pieces Green onions
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Slice the chicken breast into thin strips and season with salt and black pepper.
Clean and slice the button mushrooms. Finely mince the garlic and grate the ginger.
In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, sesame oil, chili flakes, honey, cornstarch, and water. Stir well to form a smooth sauce.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken strips and stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until lightly browned and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the garlic and ginger and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the mushrooms to the skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they release their moisture and start to brown.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and pour in the prepared sauce. Stir everything together and let it cook for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken and mushrooms.
Slice the green onions and sprinkle them over the dish as a garnish before serving.
Serve hot with steamed rice or noodles for a complete meal.
