Ingredients
Protein
- 1 lb chicken breast sliced, or meat of choice, see notes
- 1 tsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp oyster sauce
- 1 tsp corn starch
- 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
- 3 cloves garlic sliced
Chop Suey Sauce
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp oyster sauce
- 1.5 tbsp corn starch
- 1 cup chicken stock no sodium preferred
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1/2 tsp toasted sesame oil
- 1 tsp shaoxing wine optional but highly recommended
- 1 tsp dark soy sauce very optional, for color
- 1/2 tsp ground white pepper optional, if you can find
Suggested Vegetables
- 1 cup broccoli cut into bite sized pieces
- 1 cup mushrooms sliced
- 1 cup bean sprouts rinsed
- 7 oz baby corn 1/2 can
- 1 bell pepper cut into squares
- 1/2 medium onion sliced
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients to marinate and velvet the meat (or tofu) and set aside.
- Combine all the ingredients of your sauce. Reduce in a large nonstick skillet until suitably thickened, about 2 minutes. Transfer to another container and set aside.
- Prepare your fluffy white rice or crispy chow mein if needed. Then, heat up 1 tbsp of oil in the same nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. When hot, add your protein and quickly stir fry until cooked through, about 3-4 minutes, then remove.
- Add all the vegetables except the beansprouts to the now empty skillet and give them a very quick toss, 1-2 minutes (or to your preference).
- Add the meats, bean sprouts, and sauce to the skillet and allow the sauce to come to a boil, 1-2 minutes. Serve immediately, with green onions and sesame seeds and chili flakes.
Notes
You can use any protein you like, such as pork chops, chicken thighs, tofu, etc. If using tofu or ground meats, omit the corn starch.
