Ingredients

• 450 grams chicken breast
• 250 grams asparagus
• 200 grams mushrooms (button or cremini)
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 3 tablespoons water
• 3 cloves garlic
• 1 tablespoon ginger
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon red chili flakes (optional)
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 2 stalks scallions (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Slice the chicken breast thinly into bite-sized strips and set aside.

Step 2

Trim the woody ends off the asparagus, then cut the spears into 2-inch pieces.

Step 3

Clean and slice the mushrooms into thin slices.

Step 4

Mince the garlic and grate the ginger.

Step 5

In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, cornstarch, and water to create the stir-fry sauce. Add black pepper to taste.

Step 6

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

Step 7

Once hot, add the chicken slices and stir-fry until they are cooked through and lightly browned, about 5-6 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.

Step 8

Add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil to the pan. Toss in the minced garlic, grated ginger, and optional red chili flakes. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 9

Add the asparagus to the pan and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, keeping it vibrant and crisp-tender.

Step 10

Next, add the mushrooms and stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes until they are softened and lightly browned.

Step 11

Return the cooked chicken to the pan and pour in the stir-fry sauce.

Step 12

Stir everything together and cook for another 1-2 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and coat the ingredients evenly.

Step 13

Drizzle the sesame oil over the stir-fry and give it one final toss.

Step 14

Remove from heat and garnish with sliced scallions, if desired.

Step 15

Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles.
