Ingredients

  • about 450 g Chicken breast
  • about 225 g Mushrooms
  • 1/2 cup Bamboo shoots
  • 1/2 cup Water chestnuts
  • 2 tbsp Gluten-free soy sauce (Tamari)
  • 1 cup Chicken broth
  • 1 tbsp Cornstarch
  • 1 tsp Ginger
  • 2 cloves Garlic
  • 1 tsp Sesame oil
  • 2 tbsp Vegetable oil

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 225 g of mushrooms, and mince the 1 tsp of ginger and 2 cloves of garlic.
  2. 2In a medium bowl, whisk together the 2 tbsp of gluten-free soy sauce (Tamari), 1 cup of chicken broth, and 1 tbsp of cornstarch until the cornstarch is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
  3. 3Heat 2 tbsp of vegetable oil in a large 30.48 cm skillet or wok over medium-high heat until the oil shimmers, about 175°C.
  4. 4Add the sliced about 450 g of chicken breast to the hot skillet and stir-fry for 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink inside. Transfer the cooked chicken to a clean plate and set aside.
  5. 5Add the sliced about 225 g of mushrooms, 1/2 cup of bamboo shoots, and 1/2 cup of water chestnuts to the same skillet. Stir-fry for 3-5 minutes, until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
  6. 6Add the minced 1 tsp of ginger and 2 cloves of garlic to the skillet with the vegetables and stir-fry for 1 minute until fragrant.
  7. 7Return the cooked about 450 g of chicken to the skillet with the vegetables. Pour the prepared sauce mixture over everything. Cook, stirring constantly, for 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened and coats the chicken and vegetables.
  8. 8Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the 1 tsp of sesame oil. Serve immediately.
