Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Moo Goo Gai Pan Stir Fry.
Step 1
To start your delicious stir-fry, grab a wok or a large skillet and heat up a tablespoon of vegetable oil over high heat.
Step 2
Once the oil is shimmering, toss in your sliced mushrooms, snow peas, water chestnuts, and bok choy.
Step 3
Sprinkle a little salt and black pepper to taste, and stir-fry these vibrant veggies for about five minutes, just until they’re tender yet still crisp.
Step 4
Once they’re ready, remove them from the wok and set them aside, taking a moment to wipe the wok clean for the next step.
Step 5
Now, add another tablespoon of vegetable oil to the wok.
Step 6
It’s time to infuse some flavor! Stir in minced garlic and ginger, letting them sizzle for just a few seconds until the garlic turns a lovely golden brown.
Step 7
The aroma will be irresistible! Next, add your thinly sliced chicken to the mix and cook it for about five minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is no longer pink and is cooked through.
Step 8
Once your chicken is perfectly cooked, pour in some white wine, followed by a sprinkle of sugar and a splash of chicken broth.
Step 9
Bring this delightful mixture to a boil, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully.
Step 10
In a small bowl, dissolve cornstarch in water, then stir this mixture into your bubbling sauce.
Step 11
Keep an eye on it as it cooks for about 30 seconds, thickening up and turning clear—this is where the magic happens! Finally, it’s time to bring everything together.
Step 12
Return the cooked vegetables to the wok and give everything a good toss, ensuring the veggies are heated through and beautifully coated in that luscious sauce.
Step 13
Serve your stir-fry hot and enjoy the burst of flavors in every bite! This dish is not just a meal; it’s a celebration of fresh ingredients and vibrant tastes that will surely impress your family and friends.
Step 14
Happy cooking!.
