Chicken with Snow Peas Stir-fry image

Edible pea pods are a delicious crunchy and tender vegetable great for a side or even a main dish and this easy-to-make chicken with snow peas stir-fry is no exception!

Provided by Bill

Categories     Chicken and Poultry

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 teaspoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon light soy sauce
1 teaspoon oil
2 chicken breasts (12 ounces) ((sliced into strips))
1/3 cup chicken stock ((or water))
1/2 tablespoon cornstarch
1 pound snow peas ((trimmed and washed))
1 tablespoon oil
1 clove garlic ((minced))
1 tablespoon shaoxing wine
1 tablespoon light soy
1 teaspoon oyster sauce
1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
½ teaspoon salt
Fresh ground white pepper
1/8 teaspoon sugar

Steps:

  • Mix the cornstarch, light soy sauce, and oil in a bowl for the marinade. And add toss in the chicken. Set aside. Mix 1/3 cup of hot water or chicken stock with cornstarch into a slurry and set aside. If you like more sauce for the rice, increase your hot water/stock and add more salt or soy sauce to taste.
  • Heat the wok over high heat until smoking, add a tablespoon of oil to coat the wok and spread the chicken around evenly. Let the chicken sear (don't move the pieces) for about 60 seconds until browned on one side. If the wok is heated properly, the chicken should not stick. Next, give the chicken a quick stir and add the minced garlic and snow peas. Add the shaoxing wine around the rim of the wok to deglaze and stir everything together using a bottom to top folding motion for about 30 seconds.
  • Movement is important for the snow peas to cook evenly. The pods should be just starting to turn bright green now. Working quickly, add soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, salt, pepper, and sugar. Stir to combine, about 15 seconds.
  • Stir up your slurry mix (the water and starch has probably separated by now) and add to the wok. Stir-fry for another 30 seconds, or until the sauce is thick enough to coat a spoon. All of the pea pods should be bright green by now. Don't overcook or you precious pea pods will become limp and turn yellow!
  • Plate and serve immediately with steamed rice.

SESAME CHICKEN WITH SNOW PEAS



Sesame Chicken with Snow Peas image

Skip the take-out and make your own version of this popular sweet-and-savory Chinese-American dish. We've lightened our version up by giving the chicken a quick marinade in soy and honey instead of coating and deep-frying it as most restaurants do. Steamed snow peas and brown rice round out the meal.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

5 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
4 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
2 teaspoons honey
1 1/4 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into 3/4-inch chunks
6 teaspoons canola oil
2 scallions, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon grated peeled ginger
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 1/4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
3 tablespoons sugar
3 to 4 teaspoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 teaspoon chili paste
4 cups snow peas, trimmed
Cooked brown rice, for serving (optional)
2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Whisk 3 tablespoons soy sauce, 2 teaspoons sesame oil and the honey together in a medium bowl. Add the chicken, toss and marinate 20 minutes.
  • Remove the chicken from the marinade using a slotted spoon. Heat 2 teaspoons canola oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken in 2 batches, turning once or twice, until browned, 3 to 5 minutes (add 2 more teaspoons canola oil between batches). Transfer the chicken to a plate and wipe out the skillet.
  • Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons canola oil in the skillet. Add the scallions, reserving some of the green parts for topping. Add the ginger and garlic and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Whisk the broth, sugar, cornstarch, vinegar, chili paste and the remaining 2 tablespoons soy sauce in a bowl; add to the skillet and cook, stirring, until thickened, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the remaining 2 teaspoons sesame oil.
  • Meanwhile, cook the snow peas in a steamer basket set over a few inches of boiling water until crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Return the chicken to the skillet with the sauce and heat through. Serve the chicken and snow peas over brown rice, if desired. Top with the sesame seeds and reserved scallion greens.

STIR-FRIED CHICKEN WITH YELLOW PEPPERS AND SNOW PEAS



Stir-Fried Chicken with Yellow Peppers and Snow Peas image

Categories     Chicken     Stir-Fry     Quick & Easy     Pea     Bell Pepper     Gourmet

Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons plus 1 1/2 teaspoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons rice vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoons Asian (toasted) sesame oil
1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon water
1 whole skinless boneless chicken breasts (about 3/4 pound), cut into 3/4-inch-thick pieces
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/3 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 tablespoon minced scallion
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 1/2 teaspoons minced peeled fresh gingerroot
1 small yellow bell pepper, cut into thin strips
1/4 pound snow peas, trimmed and halved crosswise
cooked rice as an accompaniment

Steps:

  • In a bowl stir together 1 teaspoon of the cornstarch, 1 1/2 teaspoons of the soy sauce, 2 teaspoons of the vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon of the sesame oil, and 1 tablespoon of the water until the cornstarch is dissolved, add the chicken, and let it marinate for 15 minutes. In a small bowl stir together the remaining 1 tablespoon cornstarch, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 2 tablespoons vinegar, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, and 1/3 cup water with the sugar, the salt, and the broth until the cornstarch is dissolved and reserve the mixture. In a wok or large heavy skillet heat the vegetable oil over moderately high heat until it is hot but not smoking, in it stir-fry the chicken mixture until the chicken is opaque and just cooked through, and transfer the chicken with a slotted spoon to a sieve set over a bowl. Discard all but about 2 tablespoons of the oil remaining in the wok and in it stir-fry the scallion, the garlic, and the gingerroot for 10 seconds, or until the mixture is fragrant. Add the bell pepper and the snow peas and stir-fry mixture for 1 minute. Add the reserved broth mixture and the chicken and stir-fry the mixture for 1 minute, or until the chicken is heated through. Serve the chicken stir-fry over the rice.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: To ensure a smooth and efficient cooking process, prepare all your ingredients and have them ready before you start cooking.
  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the final dish. Choose fresh chicken, snow peas, and aromatics like ginger and garlic.
  • Use a well-seasoned wok: A well-seasoned wok will help prevent food from sticking and ensure even cooking. If you don't have a wok, you can use a large skillet or frying pan.
  • Control the heat: Stir-fries require high heat to cook quickly and evenly. Make sure your wok or skillet is hot enough before adding the ingredients.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: Avoid overcrowding the pan with ingredients. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and will result in a soggy stir-fry.
  • Stir constantly: Stirring constantly will help prevent the ingredients from sticking and burning. It will also ensure that the sauce is evenly distributed.
  • Use a cornstarch slurry: A cornstarch slurry is a mixture of cornstarch and water that is used to thicken the sauce. Adding a cornstarch slurry at the end of the cooking process will help create a glossy, flavorful sauce.
  • Serve immediately: Stir-fries are best served immediately after cooking. This will ensure that the vegetables are crisp and the flavors are at their peak.

Conclusion:

Chicken and snow pea stir-fry is a delicious, healthy, and easy-to-make dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. By following the tips above, you can create a flavorful and satisfying stir-fry that will impress your family and friends.
