Half a tablespoon Shaoxing rice wine.
# Instructions:
01 -
Cut the chicken at a slant (around 45°) across the grain. Mix it with the marinade ingredients and chill it in the fridge for about 15 minutes.
02 -
Get all vegetables ready. Keep seasoning items separate from your cabbage. Mix all the sauce ingredients in a small bowl.
03 -
Warm up a large pan on medium heat, pour in some oil, and cook the marinated chicken till both sides are nicely browned.
04 -
Take the chicken out. Add more oil, and fry the garlic, ginger, and the white parts of the onions until you can smell them.
05 -
Turn the heat up to medium-high, throw in the cabbage stems with a pinch of salt, and stir-fry until they start to soften a little.
06 -
Add in the cabbage leaves, mushrooms, and chicken stock. Cover the pan, and let it all cook for about 3 minutes, or until the texture is tender but not mushy.
07 -
Take off the lid. Put the chicken back in, pour in the sauce, and toss it all for one minute.
08 -
Move everything to a serving dish, top with the green parts of scallions, and add a light drizzle of toasted sesame oil.
09 -
Dish it out right away and enjoy while it’s warm. This’ll give you the best flavor and texture.
