Moo Goo Gai Pan (Stir-Fried Chicken And Mushrooms)

Type: Chicken, Poultry, Vegetables
Serves: 4 people

Recipe Ingredients

8 tablespoons 120mlPeanut oil
2   Green onions - sliced
1/2 lb 227g / 8ozFresh mushrooms - sliced
2   Chicken breasts boned and sliced.
2 tablespoons 30mlSoy sauce - (more if desired)
1 teaspoon 5mlSalt

Recipe Instructions

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.
