CHICKEN CHOP SUEY



Chicken Chop Suey image

Chop suey has always been my favorite dish at Chinese restaurants, and after several tries I've managed to come up with this dish that tastes very similar to the chop suey at my favorite Chinese restaurant. There is a lot of chopping, but it's well worth the effort. The prep time depends on how quickly you can chop. We like it with vegetable fried rice or honey-garlic spare ribs.

CHICKEN CHOP SUEY



Chicken Chop Suey image

My SO recently was diagnosed with diabetes so I have had to radically change our eating habits. He's a big guy and likes a full plate so I have been working on lightening foods without sacrificing portions. This works out per serving to 3 lean meats, 1 fat and 1 carbohydrate leaving plenty of room for the rice or noodles you wish to serve it on.****The sodium looks high because it didn't calculate for the low sodium soy sauce, figure half the sodium listed in the nutritional data*******

CHICKEN CHOP SUEY



Chicken Chop Suey image

Chop suey may sound like something your grandmother ate in the 1950s, but this version from China Café in L.A.'s Grand Central Market - a chicken stir-fry enlivened with plenty of bright bok choy - is honest, simple and plainly delicious.

Provided by Mark Bittman

Categories     dinner, easy, lunch, main course

Time 45m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 large or 2 medium chicken thighs
1 1/2 pounds bok choy, washed and cut into eighths lengthwise, then crosswise into 3-to-4-inch ribbons
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 1/2 tablespoons oyster sauce
1 teaspoon sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
Salt to taste
White pepper

Steps:

  • In two cups of boiling water, simmer the chicken for 30 minutes. Remove chicken from the water, and let cool. Reserve the stock. When the chicken is cool enough to handle, remove the meat, chop and set aside; discard the skin and bones.
  • Put the vegetable oil in a large, wide skillet set over high heat. When it is hot, add the bok choy, and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Then add half the reserved stock to the pan, and cover; cook until the bok choy is crisp but still tender, about 2 minutes. Remove the cover, and continue cooking until the liquid evaporates and the bok choy browns a bit, 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
  • Add the remaining stock and the chicken to the pan set over high heat. Heat the chicken through, then add the oyster sauce, sugar, cornstarch slurry, sesame oil and reserved bok choy; season to taste. Toss to combine, and serve immediately over rice.

Tips:

  • Prep all Ingredients: Before starting to cook, make sure all ingredients are prepped and measured. This will make cooking faster and easier.
  • Use High-Quality Ingredients: The fresher and better quality the ingredients, the tastier your Chicken Chop Suey will be.
  • Marinate the Chicken: Marinating the chicken in a mixture of soy sauce, ginger, garlic, and rice wine for at least 30 minutes will add flavor and tenderness to the meat.
  • Use a Wok or Large Skillet: A wok or large skillet is best for stir-frying because it allows for even heat distribution and prevents overcrowding.
  • Cook the Ingredients in Stages: Cook the chicken, vegetables, and sauce separately to ensure they are all cooked evenly.
  • Use a Cornstarch Slurry: Adding a cornstarch slurry at the end of cooking will thicken the sauce and give it a glossy appearance.
  • Serve Immediately: Chicken Chop Suey is best served hot and fresh, with rice or noodles.

Conclusion:

Chicken Chop Suey is a flavorful and versatile dish that can be easily customized to suit your preferences. With its combination of tender chicken, crisp vegetables, and savory sauce, it's a dish that the whole family will enjoy. Whether you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal or an impressive dish to serve at a party, Chicken Chop Suey is sure to please.
