Yu Xiang Rou Si Sichuan Shredded Chicken Stir Fry 鱼香肉丝 Recipes

YU-XIANG ROU-SI (SICHUAN SHREDDED CHICKEN STIR-FRY, 鱼香肉丝)

Steps:

• Slice chicken breast into long, thin strips, parallel to the grain. Prepare and cut vegetables.
• Combine chicken, light soy sauce, and Shaoxing wine in a small bowl. Add cornstarch and mix well by hand, until the thin starchy paste coats the chicken evenly.
• Combine all sauce ingredients in a small bowl and mix well.
• Heat a wok (or a nonstick skillet) over medium high heat until hot. Add 1 tablespoon oil and swirl to cover the bottom. Add chicken and quickly spread it with a spatula. Allow to cook for 20 to 30 seconds without stirring. Stir and cook until the surface of the chicken just turns white, about 1 minute. Turn to lowest heat and immediately transfer to a plate.
• Add the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of oil and turn back to medium heat heat. Add ginger and give it a stir until fragrant. Add carrot. Stir and cook until half cooked, about 1 minute. Add bamboo shoots. Stir and cook for 1 minute. Add bell pepper and chicken. Stir the spicy sauce again and swirl it into the wok. Immediately mix everything well with a spatula, until all ingredients are covered with sauce. Remove from heat and transfer to a plate immediately.
• Serve warm over steamed white rice.
