Posted on May 22, 2025 by admin

Here’s a Delicious Chicken and Green Onion Stir-Fry recipe that’s quick, flavorful, and perfect for a weeknight meal:


Chicken and Green Onion Stir-Fry

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb (450g) chicken breast or thigh, thinly sliced

  • 4–5 green onions (scallions), cut into 2-inch pieces

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, minced

  • 1 tbsp soy sauce

  • 1 tbsp oyster sauce

  • 1 tsp sesame oil

  • 1 tsp cornstarch

  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil

  • Salt and pepper, to taste

  • Optional: chili flakes or fresh chili for a spicy kick


Marinade:

  • 1 tbsp soy sauce

  • 1 tsp cornstarch

  • 1 tsp rice wine (optional)


Instructions:

  1. Marinate the chicken: In a bowl, mix chicken slices with soy sauce, cornstarch, and rice wine (if using). Let it sit for 10–15 minutes while you prep the other ingredients.

  2. Prepare your aromatics: Chop green onions, garlic, and ginger. Separate the white and green parts of the green onions.

  3. Heat oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

  4. Sear the chicken: Add marinated chicken and stir-fry until just cooked through and slightly browned (about 4–5 minutes). Remove from pan and set aside.

  5. Stir-fry aromatics: In the same pan, add a bit more oil if needed. Toss in garlic, ginger, and the white parts of the green onion. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.

  6. Add sauces: Stir in soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil.

  7. Return chicken: Add the cooked chicken back to the pan. Toss everything together for 1–2 minutes.

  8. Add green onion tops and cook for another 30 seconds, just until slightly wilted.

  9. Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles.


Tips:

  • For extra texture, add sliced bell peppers, mushrooms, or snow peas.

  • Swap chicken for tofu or shrimp if desired.

  • Drizzle with a touch of honey or sugar if you prefer a sweet-savory balance.
