CHICKEN CHOP SUEY



Chicken Chop Suey image

Chop suey has always been my favorite dish at Chinese restaurants, and after several tries I've managed to come up with this dish that tastes very similar to the chop suey at my favorite Chinese restaurant. There is a lot of chopping, but it's well worth the effort. The prep time depends on how quickly you can chop. We like it with vegetable fried rice or honey-garlic spare ribs.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Chop and prepare all your vegetables and ingredients before you start cooking. This will make the process much quicker and easier.
  • Use a wok: A wok is the traditional Chinese cooking pan that is perfect for stir-frying. It heats up evenly and quickly, and the sloping sides make it easy to toss and stir the food.
  • Use high heat: Stir-frying is a high-heat cooking method, so make sure your wok or pan is very hot before adding the food. This will help to sear the food and prevent it from sticking.
  • Don't overcrowd the wok: Stir-frying is best done in small batches. If you overcrowd the wok, the food will not cook evenly and will become soggy.
  • Toss and stir constantly: This will help to evenly cook the food and prevent it from burning.
  • Add the sauce at the end: The sauce should be added towards the end of the cooking process, so that it does not overcook and lose its flavor.
  • Serve immediately: Stir-fried dishes are best served immediately, while they are still hot and fresh.

Conclusion:

Chinatown Chop Suey is a classic American-Chinese dish that is easy to make at home. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of practice, you can create a delicious and authentic stir-fried dish that your family and friends will love. So next time you are craving Chinese food, give this recipe a try.
