Ingredients

  • about 450 g Chicken breast
  • about 450 g Mushrooms
  • 1 cup Bamboo shoots
  • 1 cup Water chestnuts
  • 3 tbsp Coconut aminos
  • 1/2 cup Vegetable broth
  • 1 tbsp Cornstarch
  • 1 tsp Sesame oil
  • 1 tsp Ginger
  • 2 cloves Garlic
  • 2 stalks Green onions

Original measure retained: its cup/spoon or fluid-volume standard is unspecified.

Instructions

  1. 1Prepare your ingredients: Slice the about 450 g of chicken breast into thin pieces. Slice the about 450 g of mushrooms. Drain the 1 cup of bamboo shoots and the 1 cup of water chestnuts.
  2. 2In a medium bowl, combine the sliced chicken breast with 1 tablespoon of coconut aminos and 1 tablespoon of cornstarch. Toss until the chicken is evenly coated.
  3. 3Heat 1 teaspoon of sesame oil in a 30.48 cm wok or large skillet over medium-high heat (204.4°C / 200°C). Add 1 teaspoon of ginger and 2 cloves of minced garlic. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  4. 4Add the coated chicken breast to the hot wok. Stir-fry for approximately 5 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink inside. The internal temperature should reach 74°C.
  5. 5Add the sliced mushrooms, drained bamboo shoots, and drained water chestnuts to the wok. Continue to stir-fry for 3 minutes until the mushrooms begin to soften.
  6. 6Pour in the remaining 2 tablespoons of coconut aminos and the 1/2 cup of vegetable broth. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly.
  7. 7Chop the 2 stalks of green onions. Garnish the Moo Goo Gai Pan with the chopped green onions. Serve immediately over rice or noodles.
