Ingredients

The following ingredients have 2 Servings
  • 300 gr soaked sea cucumber (cut into bite-size)
  • 1 Tbsp cooking oil
  • 6 large shitake mushroom (soaked in warm water)
  • 1/2 cup hot water
  • 1 Tbsp goji berries (soak in warm water until plump)
  • 100 gr boneless skinless chicken thigh (cut into thin strips)
  • 1 tsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp oyster sauce
  • 3 cloves garlic (finely minced)
  • 1 Tbsp oyster sauce
  • 1 Tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 Tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 Tbsp Shaoxing wine
  • 1/2 tsp ground white pepper
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1 tsp cornstarch
  • 2 tsp water
  • 1 stalk green onion (finely chopped)
  • Few sprigs of fresh cilantro leaves

Instruction

  • Place the chicken meat and marinade ingredients in a bowl and marinate for 30 minutes. Soak shiitake mushrooms in warm water until soft and then. Mix the seasonings ingredients in a bowl and set aside. Mix cornstarch and water in another bowl to thicken the sauce later
  • Preheat a wok/skillet over high heat. Add cooking oil and lower the heat to medium. Add garlic and saute until fragrant for about 10 seconds
  • Add the chicken and continue to saute until the meat turns opaque. Add mushrooms and stir fry for a minute. Add seasonings and stir to mix. Carefully pour in hot water. Add sea cucumber pieces, stir to mi again. Cover with a lid and lower the heat to let it simmer for about 10-15 minutes to let the sea cucumber absorb the taste and seasonings
  • Uncover the lid, add goji berries. Have a taste and adjust by adding more soy sauce and/or sugar as needed. Give the cornstarch solution a stir and then pour into the stir fry and continue to stir until the sauce thickens. Garnish with chopped green onions and cilantro leaves. Serve as part of multi-course meal
