CHINESE CHICKEN OVEN "STIR-FRY"



Chinese Chicken Oven

This has the makings of a stir-fry with the convenience of throwing everything together. The veggies can be personalized to suit what is on hand or to cater to the likes and dislikes of the family. Simi likes it sweet and garlicky whereas my husband doesn't like it very sweet at all so depending on who is eating determines how it is seasoned. Serve over rice or lo mien noodles with some take-out egg rolls and fortune cookies for an easy Chinese meal.

Time 55m

Yield 1 pan, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 boneless chicken breast, cubed
3 boneless chicken thighs, cubed
1/3 cup carrot, thinly sliced
1/3 cup celery, thinly sliced
1/3 cup red bell pepper, sliced
8 ounces water chestnuts, sliced
8 ounces baby sweet corn cobs
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup low sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup water
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
garlic, minced
ginger
pepper
3 scallions, sliced
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 cup water
1 teaspoon sesame oil

Steps:

  • Spray a 9 x 13 pan and add chicken and veggies of your choice. (If making ahead I just mix everything in a gallon zippy bag and then pour it all into the sprayed pan when ready to bake.).
  • Except for scallions and corn starch mix together sauce ingredients adjusting the amount of sugar and spices to suit your preferences and pour over chicken and veggies. Toss to coat.
  • Preheat oven to 400 and bake uncovered for about 45 minutes or until chicken and veggies are done. Stir once at about 30 minutes and check for doneness.
  • About 10 miutes before it is done mix water and corn starch and sesame oil and mix into chicken and continue baking to thicken sauce.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure all of your ingredients are prepped and measured. This will help you stay organized and make the cooking process go more smoothly.
  • Use a wok or large skillet: A wok or large skillet will allow you to cook the chicken and vegetables quickly and evenly.
  • Use high heat: Stir-fries are cooked over high heat, so make sure your burner is turned up high. This will help you get a nice sear on the chicken and vegetables.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the chicken and vegetables will not cook evenly. Cook the chicken and vegetables in batches if necessary.
  • Stir constantly: Stirring the chicken and vegetables constantly will help them cook evenly and prevent them from sticking to the pan.
  • Add the sauce at the end: The sauce should be added at the end of the cooking process, so that it doesn't overcook and thicken too much.
  • Serve immediately: Stir-fries are best served immediately, as they will lose their heat and flavor if they sit for too long.

Conclusion:

Chinese chicken stir-fry is a quick, easy, and delicious meal that can be made with a variety of ingredients. By following these tips, you can make a stir-fry that is sure to impress your friends and family. So next time you're looking for a healthy and flavorful meal, give Chinese chicken stir-fry a try.
