Ingredients

  • 2 lbs Boneless Chicken cut into bite size pieces

Marinade

  • 2 tbsp Rice Wine
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 2 tbsp Corn Starch

Sauce

  • 5 tbsp Oyster Sauce
  • 4 tbsp Rice Wine
  • 1 tbsp Soy Sauce
  • 1/2 cup Chicken Broth
  • 2 tbsp Sugar
  • 2 tbsp Corn Starch
  • 1/2 tsp Salt

Stir Fry

  • 1 lb String Beans
  • 4 tbsp Sesame Oil can use canola oil, if preferred
  • 1.5 tbsp Garlic minced
  • 2 tsp Ginger ground or minced

Instructions

Marinating Chicken

  • Add chicken to marinade ingredients and mix well. Let sit for 10 minutes while preparing other ingredients.

Making The Sauce

  • Combine all the sauce ingredients in a bowl and mix well.

Stir Fry

  • Bring water to a boil in a wok or nonstick skillet over medium high heat.
  • Add string beans, cover, and steam for approximately 1 minute.
  • Transfer string beans to a plate.
  • Discard water in pan and wipe it with a paper towel (carefully as the pan will be hot!).
  • Add oil and swirl to coat the bottom.
  • Spread chicken in the pan in a single layer. Cook for approximately 1 minute or until the bottom side is browned.
  • Flip to cook the other side until the chicken is just about cooked.
  • Add garlic and ginger to pan. Stir a few times to mix in the flavors with the chicken.
  • Return the string beans to the pan.
  • Mix up the sauce once more and then add sauce to the pan. Cook and stir until the sauce thickens, about 2 minutes.
