Categories     Main Course

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 16

12 ounces chicken breast ((thinly sliced))
1 tablespoon water
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon oil ((any neutral oil, such as vegetable or canola oil))
1 teaspoon oyster sauce
1/2 cup water ((or low sodium chicken stock))
2 teaspoon cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
1/4 teaspoon sugar
1 tablespoon light soy sauce
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
1/4 teaspoon sesame oil
2 tablespoons oil ((any neutral oil, such as vegetable or canola oil))
1 clove garlic ((minced))
1 pound asparagus ((end trimmed and sliced on a sharp angle into 2-inch pieces))
1 tablespoon Shaoxing wine

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, combine the sliced chicken, water, cornstarch, oil, and oyster sauce. Mix until the liquid has been absorbed by the chicken. Set aside to marinate for 15-30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine the water (or chicken stock), cornstarch, white pepper, sugar, light soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil.
  • Heat your wok over high heat until it just starts to smoke, and add 1 tablespoon of oil to coat. Spread the chicken evenly in one layer, and allow it to sear undisturbed for 30 seconds. Stir-fry for another 30 seconds, or until about 75% cooked. Remove from the wok and set aside.
  • Add another tablespoon of oil to the wok, along with the minced garlic. Cook for 15 seconds, and add the asparagus. Stir-fry for 1 minute. Add the Shaoxing wine and stir-fry for another 30 seconds.
  • Meanwhile, mix your sauce mixture to ensure the cornstarch is fully incorporated. Add it to the wok, and bring to a simmer.
  • Add the chicken back to the wok, and stir-fry for another 30 seconds. The sauce should be thick enough to coat a spoon, and the asparagus should be crisp-tender.
  • Taste for seasoning and add additional salt to taste if needed. Serve over rice.
