Steps:
- Mix the soy sauce, sherry, brown sugar, cornstarch, and ginger in a small bowl. Pour about a third of the mixture over the chicken in a large bowl and toss with your hands; set aside. Reserve the remaining liquid.
- Heat the peanut oil in a large cast-iron skillet or wok over high heat. Add the snow peas and stir-fry for 45 seconds. Remove to a plate and set aside.
- Let the skillet get very hot again. Using tongs, add the chicken mixture, leaving most of the marinade in the bowl. Spread out the chicken as you add it to the pan but do not stir for a good minute so the chicken gets nice and brown on the bottom. Then flip the chicken and cook through, tossing occasionally, 5 to 6 minutes.
- Add ½ cup water, the reserved marinade, and the snow peas to the skillet. Cook over high heat, stirring, for 30 seconds, then turn off the heat. (The sauce will thicken as it sits.) Season with salt only if it needs it. Serve over rice and top with red pepper flakes and cashews, if desired. Serve with more soy sauce.
CHICKEN STIR-FRIED WITH OYSTER MUSHROOMS AND SNOW PEAS
Steps:
- To make the marinade, in a large bowl, combine the salt, sugar, cornstarch, wine, and soy sauce and stir to dissolve the sugar and cornstarch. Add the chicken and mix to coat evenly.
- To make the flavoring sauce, in a small bowl, combine the sugar, white pepper, cornstarch, water, soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil and stir well.
- In a wok or large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over high heat until hot but not smoking. Add the ginger and stir-fry for about 30 seconds, or until fragrant. Add the chicken in a single layer and cook, undisturbed, for about 1 minute, or until it begins to brown. Using a spatula, flip the chicken and stir-fry for 1 to 2 minutes, or until it has taken on color but is still slightly undercooked. Transfer to a plate.
- Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the pan and heat until hot. Add the onion and stir-fry for about 1 minute, or until fragrant. Add the mushrooms, snow peas, carrot, and 2 tablespoons of the water. Stir-fry for 1 minute, or until the water has evaporated. Repeat with the remaining 2 tablespoons water.
- Return the chicken and its juices to the pan and stir-fry briefly to finish cooking. Add the flavoring sauce and stir-fry for 1 minute. Transfer to a serving plate and serve.
SESAME CHICKEN WITH SNOW PEAS
Skip the take-out and make your own version of this popular sweet-and-savory Chinese-American dish. We've lightened our version up by giving the chicken a quick marinade in soy and honey instead of coating and deep-frying it as most restaurants do. Steamed snow peas and brown rice round out the meal.

Steps:
- Whisk 3 tablespoons soy sauce, 2 teaspoons sesame oil and the honey together in a medium bowl. Add the chicken, toss and marinate 20 minutes.
- Remove the chicken from the marinade using a slotted spoon. Heat 2 teaspoons canola oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken in 2 batches, turning once or twice, until browned, 3 to 5 minutes (add 2 more teaspoons canola oil between batches). Transfer the chicken to a plate and wipe out the skillet.
- Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons canola oil in the skillet. Add the scallions, reserving some of the green parts for topping. Add the ginger and garlic and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Whisk the broth, sugar, cornstarch, vinegar, chili paste and the remaining 2 tablespoons soy sauce in a bowl; add to the skillet and cook, stirring, until thickened, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the remaining 2 teaspoons sesame oil.
- Meanwhile, cook the snow peas in a steamer basket set over a few inches of boiling water until crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Return the chicken to the skillet with the sauce and heat through. Serve the chicken and snow peas over brown rice, if desired. Top with the sesame seeds and reserved scallion greens.
THAI GINGER CHICKEN (GAI PAD KING)
My family loved ordering this dish at our local Thai restaurant, but then they closed down for some unknown reason (they were always busy). So I decided to recreate this traditional dish at home. My husband says it's just like the restaurant...maybe even better? Please note that some people like to eat the ginger, while others don't but like the flavor it gives off. You can easily double this recipe to serve a larger group...plus it makes great leftovers.
