Ingredients
Marinade:
- 1/2 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1/2 tablespoon cornstarch
Sauce:
- 1/2 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1/4 teaspoon sesame oil
- 3 dashes white pepper
- 1 teaspoon wine
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar
Instructions
- Marinate the chicken with the ingredients in marinade for 10 minutes. Combine all the ingredients in the Sauce in a small bowl, stir to blend well.
- Cut the bok choy into pieces.
- Heat 1/2 tablespoon oil in a wok until the oil becomes hot. Add the chicken and quickly stir-fry until the surface of the chicken turn opaque or white. Dish out and set aside. This step seals in the juice in the chicken, so the texture is tender and velvety smooth.
- Heat up the remaining oil in the wok until hot. Add the ginger into the wok and stir-fry until aromatic. Add the chicken back into the wok and do a few quick stirs. Add in the bok choy and stir to combine well.
- Transfer the sauce into the wok and continue to stir-fry until the bok choy is cooked but remain crisp. Do not overcook.
- Dish out and serve immediately with steamed white rice.
Notes
- There are two important cooking techniques and tips when it comes to vegetables:
- Do not kill your vegetables, they are already dead. A perfectly cooked bok choy should appear crisp and crunchy.
- The color of the cooked vegetables should be green and not purple. The stems and leafy green should be glossy.
