Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- In a medium bowl combine 2 tablespoons of oyster sauce, rice vinegar, and a few grinds of black pepper. Add the chicken and toss to coat.
- Add 2 tablespoons of cornstarch and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes or up to overnight.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup chicken broth, the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoon oyster sauce, soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil, and the remaining 1 tablespoon cornstarch. Set aside.
- Heat a wok or heavy-bottomed large sauté pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons of the peanut oil. When the oil shimmers, add the chicken, leaving any liquid from the marinade behind (discard the marinade). Stir continuously until cooked through, about 5 minutes. Remove the chicken to a plate.
- Add another tablespoon of peanut oil to the wok. When the oil shimmers, add the mushrooms and cook, stirring continuously, until the mushrooms begin to soften, about 3 minutes.
- Add the remaining 1/4 cup of chicken broth and continue to cook until most of the liquid has evaporated, 2 to 3 minutes more.
- Push the mushrooms to the sides of the pan to create a well in the center. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of peanut oil to the well in the pan.
- When the oil shimmers, add the minced ginger and water chestnuts to the well and stir continuously until warmed through, about 1 minute.
- Create another well in the center of the pan. Add the chicken broth-soy sauce mixture. Stir the sauce quickly until thickened and beginning to bubble.
- Return the chicken to the pan with the shredded carrots, if using. Toss the mixture until well combined.
- Continue cooking until the chicken is warmed through and the carrots are crisp-tender, about 1 more minute.
- Serve over steamed rice .
