Stir-Fried Chicken With Chinese Leeks


Ingredients:

150 g. chicken breast (sliced)

1 pc. Leeks (diagonally sliced)

1 teaspoon each ginger and garlic (peeled and chopped)

1 red chili (diagonally sliced)

Cooking oil


Marinade:

1 teaspoon light soy sauce

Pinch of sugar

1/2 teaspoon cornflour/corn starch

1/2 egg white


Sauce:

2-3 tablespoon chicken stock/water

1/2 tablespoon Oyster sauce

Dash of white pepper powder

1/4 teaspoon chicken stock granules

Pinch of dark soy sauce (for colour)


Methods:

  1. Place the chicken slices into a bowl and marinate for 30 minutes.
  2. In a heated wok, add 2 tablespoons of cooking oil.  Fry the chicken in batches to avoid over crowding, then set aside.
  3. In the same wok, add 1 tablespoon of cooking oil.  Saute ginger, garlic until aromatic, then add the leeks and chili, saute for about 2 minutes.  Then add the sauce and cooked chicken.  Stir and cook until well combined.
  4. Remove onto a plate and serve!
This recipe is adapted from 'Janet's Homecooking' with slight adjustments to suit my cooking preference.
