Ingredients
Stir Fry
- 16 oz chicken thighs cut into bite-sized cubes
- 1 tbsp Shaoxing wine
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 large onion cut into thick wedges
- 3 scallions cut into ½-inch pieces (whites and greens separated)
Stir Fry Sauce
- 1 tbsp dark soy sauce
- 1 tbsp light soy sauce
- 1 tbsp oyster sauce
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 1 tsp sugar
- 2 tbsp water
Optional Serving
- Steamed rice
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine the cubed chicken thighs with Shaoxing wine, salt, and cornstarch. Mix thoroughly and marinate for 15 minutes.
- While the chicken marinates, cut the onion into thick wedges and slice the scallions into ½-inch pieces, separating the whites and greens.
- In a small bowl, combine dark soy sauce, light soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, sugar, and water. Mix well and set aside.
- Heat a pan with a bit of oil and add the marinated chicken in a single layer. Cook for about 5 minutes, browning on all sides, then remove from the pan and set aside.
- In the same pan, add the onions and scallion whites. Cook for a couple of minutes until slightly softened.
- Add the chicken back into the pan along with the sauce. Stir continuously until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken and onions.
- Finish by adding the scallion greens and cook just until wilted.
- Serve over a fresh bowl of rice, or enjoy it straight from the pan.
