The Yummiest Chicken Chop Suey, Quick & Easy Chinese Recipe! CiCi Li - Asian Home Cooking Recipes

Hi all my lovely foodies. This is CC. Today we are going to make a really popular Chinese American dish, chop suey. In Chinese, we call it zha sui. The funny thing is, it doesn't have a definite recipe. That's because it's a fridge clean out dish. So the good news is, you can use anything that you have in your kitchen right now. First, we're going to cut the chicken into slices. In a large bowl, transfer in the chicken and the marinades, soy sauce, white pepper, egg white, cornstarch slurry, which is 1 teaspoon of cornstarch and 1 tablespoon of water. Give it a good mix. Marinate for 10 minutes. Thinly slice the carrot. Cut the asparagus into 1 ½-inch pieces. Cut the bell pepper into strips. Take out the tip and string of snow peas. Slice the shiitake mushrooms into slices. Mince the garlic. To make the sauce, in a bowl, mix in all the seasonings, soy sauce, oyster sauce, Shaoxing wine, white pepper, sesame oil, cornstarch slurry, which is 1 teaspoon of cornstarch and 1 tablespoon of water. In a wok over high heat, heat it up until smoking hot. Add the extra light olive oil. Transfer in the chicken and let it sizzle for about 30 seconds. Then stir-fry until completely cooked, 3 minutes. Take it out and set aside. In a wok over high heat, add the extra light olive oil. Place in the carrot, asparagus, bell pepper, and stir-fry for about 30 seconds. Then add in the snow peas, mushrooms, and garlic. Cook until aromatic, 30 seconds. Now return the chicken, add in the bean sprouts, and the sauce. Mix everything together. The best part is that you don't have to think about the recipe. It's so convenient. You can use anything that you have in your fridge. It's so refreshing with all the vegetables. Oh, delicious. I can taste the charred taste of the wok. In Chinese, we call it guo qi. What do you think about this recipe? Is it a yay or a maybe not? Comment below and let me know your opinion. I will see you again next Friday for another awesome episode. Bye for now!
