Time 30m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into 1/2 inch long thin strips
2 tablespoons shaoxing wine or 2 tablespoons dry sherry
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon fresh ground black pepper
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 tablespoons black vinegar
2 tablespoons dark soy sauce
1 tablespoon shaoxing wine
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons garlic and red chile paste
1/4 teaspoon sesame oil
1 head garlic, minced
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
1 bunch scallion, white and light green parts, minced
8 fresh water chestnuts, peeled and thinly sliced
1 piece black cloud ear mushrooms, soaked and drained (optional)
1 bunch scallion, dark green parts, thinly sliced
2 teaspoons cornstarch, dissolved into 2 tsp. water
3 tablespoons peanut oil (or canola oil)

Steps:

  • Marinate chicken with wine, cornstarch and black pepper while cutting vegetables. Mix together sauce ingredients: vinegars, soy sauce, wine, sugar, chili garlic paste and sesame oil. Set aside.
  • Slice water chestnuts into shreds, about three pieces per slice. Trim any woody parts from the fungus and discard. Roll up fungus into a cigar shape and thinly slice crosswise to make thin ribbon-like shreds.
  • Heat wok on high heat until it is about to start smoking, add oil and heat until it shimmers, then stir fry garlic, ginger and white part of scallion together for thirty seconds. Add drained chicken, and pat into a layer on the bottom of the wok. Allow chicken to brown lightly by sitting undisturbed on the wok for 45-60 seconds. Stir and fry until chicken is nearly done.
  • Add water chestnuts, fungus and sauce ingredients. Bring sauce to a boil. Add cornstarch and water, boil until thickened and glossy. Remove from heat and garnish with green scallion tops.

This recipe was a disaster! The chicken was overcooked and the sauce was burnt. I'm never making this again.

The chicken was dry and the sauce was bland. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

This recipe was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less soy sauce next time.

I'm not a big fan of garlic, but this recipe was still really good. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the sauce was flavorful without being too overpowering.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra garlic and lemon juice to the sauce and it was much better.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a hit! The chicken is so tender and juicy, and the sauce is to die for. I highly recommend it!

I love this recipe! The chicken is always so tender and the sauce is so flavorful. I usually serve it over rice, but it's also great on its own.

This recipe was easy to follow and the chicken turned out great! I used chicken thighs instead of breasts and they were still very juicy. The sauce was also delicious.

This recipe was delicious! I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts and they cooked perfectly in the garlic sauce. I served it over rice and it was a perfect meal.

I made this dish last night and it was a hit! My family loved the flavor of the chicken and sauce. It was easy to make and didn't take long at all. I will definitely be making this again.

This recipe is a keeper! The chicken was so tender and juicy, and the garlic sauce was the perfect complement. I will definitely be making this again and again.
