Moo Goo Gai Pan (Stir-Fried Chicken And Mushrooms) Recipe - Cooking Index
8 tablespoons | 120ml | Peanut oil |
2 | Green onions - sliced | |
1/2 lb | 227g / 8oz | Fresh mushrooms - sliced |
2 | Chicken breasts boned and sliced. | |
2 tablespoons | 30ml | Soy sauce - (more if desired) |
1 teaspoon | 5ml | Salt |
Have all ingredients ready before beginning. Heat 2 tbs. oil in a large frying pan or wok. When oil is very hot, stir-fry the onions and mushrooms for 3 minutes
Remove to a bowl, and add 6 tbs. more oil to pan. Stir-fry chicken until no longer pink, about 5 minutes
Return the mushrooms and onions to the skillet, and add soy sauce and salt to taste. Remove to a plate and serve immediately.
NOTE: the chicken pieces may be marinated for 15 to 30 minutes before frying in a mixture of 1 egg white, tsp. cornstarch, 2 tsp. dry sherry, and salt and pepper to taste. This tenderizes the chicken and adds flavor. Sliced water chestnuts and snowpeas may be stir fried with the mushrooms.
