Ingredients

  • 1 cup uncooked long-grain white rice
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon sugar
  • 3 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 3/4 lb. chicken breast strips for stir-frying
  • 1/2 teaspoon ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

  • 1 garlic clove, minced

Steps

  • 1
    Cook rice in water as directed on package.
  • 2
    Meanwhile, in small bowl, combine broth, oyster sauce, sugar and 2 teaspoons of the cornstarch; blend well. Set aside.
  • 3
    In medium bowl, combine chicken, ginger, salt and remaining 1 teaspoon cornstarch; mix gently to coat. Set aside.
  • 4
    Heat oil in wok or large nonstick skillet over high heat until hot. Add chicken mixture; cook and stir 3 minutes. Add pea pods, mushrooms, bell pepper and garlic; cook and stir 3 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink in center.
  • 5
    Add broth mixture; cook an additional 1 to 2 minutes or until sauce is slightly thickened and vegetables are crisp-tender. Serve over rice.

  • For an earthier mushroom flavor, try 1/2 cup of shiitake mushrooms in place of 1 cup of regular mushrooms.
  • Garnish this stir-fry with green onion "fans": Cut several 1-inch slits through both ends of 4-inch lengths of green onion. Place slit onions in cold water until the cut ends have fanned out.
  • Prepare this stir-fry for an Asian-theme dinner party. Start the menu with black tea, and serve wedges of fresh pineapple and fortune cookies for dessert.
