This is a combination of 2 great recipes. My very own Stir-Fried Hoisin Chicken With Sesame Seeds and Hoisin Chicken and Broccoli Stir-Fry . I liked elements from both and was constantly referring back and forth to get the perfect mix of ingredients, so I decided to write it down. Voila, here you go! This can be done in a skillet but a wok is my preferred way to cook this dish. Ingredients:
1 cup long grain rice, cooked will yield 2 cups, more as needed |
1/3 cup chicken broth |
1/3 cup hoisin sauce |
1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce |
2 tablespoons white wine (optional) |
1 teaspoon cornstarch |
1 tablespoon vegetable oil, more as needed |
2 teaspoons garlic, minced |
2 teaspoons ginger, minced |
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes, to taste |
1 lb chicken tenders, cut into 1-inch bite size pieces |
1/2 cup yellow onion, cut into 1-inch pieces |
1/2 cup red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces |
1/2 carrot, peel and cut into matchsticks |
4 ounces white mushrooms, halved |
4 ounces water chestnuts, sliced |
6 ounces chow mein noodles, crunchy |
1/4 cup green onion, sliced for garnish |
1 tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted for garnish (optional) |
Directions:
1. Get your rice cooked according to the package instructions.
2. Spray your wok with nonstick spry, this will prevent a sticky & messy cleanup from the hoisin.
3. MAKE THE SAUCE: Combine and mix: the chicken broth, hoisin sauce, Worcestershire, wine, corn starch. Set aside.
4. Heat wok over a medium heat. Add vegetable oil and heat to a shimmer.
5. Add the garlic and ginger for 1-2 minutes. *Careful, have the lid ready, it will spatter POP!
6. Add the chicken and saute until it is cooked through and no longer pink.
7. Remove from the pan.
8. Add more oil if necessary.
9. Add the onions, bell pepper, carrots, water chestnuts, mushrooms - Saute for about 3-5 minutes until crisp tender. Do not overcook!
10. Return chicken to the wok with the vegetables.
11. Pour the sauce mix over the chicken and vegetables. Heat through for about 2 minutes.
12. Serve over rice, Top with toasted sesame seeds, crunchy chow mein noodles, and sliced green onions. Enjoy!
