Description

Ingredients

• 10 oz. chicken breast, thinly sliced
• A pinch of salt
• 1 teaspoon cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon oil
• 1 tablespoon light soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Shaoxing wine
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• ¾ cup chicken broth (or water)
• 2 tablespoons oil
• 12 dried red chilies
• 1 teaspoon minced ginger
• 3 cloves minced garlic
• 1 small winter bamboo shoot, outer husk peeled, thinly sliced, and then julienned
• 1 cup soaked wood-ear mushrooms, julienned
• ½ red bell pepper, thinly sliced
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 2 teaspoons chili oil (optional)
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch, mixed into a slurry with 2 tablespoons water
• 1 scallion, sliced on an angle

Directions

• Marinate the sliced chicken with salt, cornstarch, and oil. Set aside while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
• Before you start cooking, mix together the ingredients for the sauce in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a wok over medium heat. Add the dried chilies, ginger, and garlic, and cook for a minute. Turn up the heat to high and immediately add the chicken. Stir-fry until the chicken is opaque.
• Add the bamboo shots, mushrooms, and bell pepper. Cook for another 2 minutes. Add the prepared sauce, and give everything a stir. Bring to a boil. Add salt to taste, chili oil (if using), and the cornstarch slurry. Stir-fry for 30 seconds, allowing the sauce to thicken. Add the scallions, give everything a final toss, and serve with rice.
