Ingredients for Oyster Sauce Chicken with Mushrooms

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 10 fresh mushrooms, sliced (button, shiitake, or your favorite variety)
  • 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cooking wine
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 2 teaspoons minced ginger
  • 1/4 cup water or chicken stock
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • Optional: Green onions for garnish

Preparing Oyster Sauce Chicken with Mushrooms

  1. Marinate the chicken pieces: In a bowl, combine the chicken with 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, 1/2 tablespoon of sugar, and 1 teaspoon of cornstarch. Mix well and let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
  2. Sauté the mushrooms: Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté until they become soft and release their moisture, about 3-4 minutes. Set aside.
  3. Cook the chicken: Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add the minced garlic and ginger and stir-fry for a few seconds until fragrant. Add the marinated chicken and stir-fry until the chicken is cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Make the sauce: In a small bowl, combine the remaining 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, 1/2 tablespoon of sugar, and 1/4 cup of water or chicken stock. Mix well and add to the wok. Stir-fry the sauce with the chicken for another minute or two, allowing the flavors to meld.
  5. Combine with the mushrooms: Add the sautéed mushrooms to the wok and toss everything together. Let the sauce thicken and coat the chicken and mushrooms.
  6. Garnish and serve: Optional, sprinkle some chopped green onions on top for added color and freshness. Serve the Oyster Sauce Chicken with Mushrooms hot over steamed rice or with your favorite sides.
