STEAMED CHICKEN WITH BLACK MUSHROOMS AND BOK CHOY

Steps:

• Soak shiitakes in boiling-hot water in a bowl until softened, about 30 minutes. Cut out and discard stems, then squeeze excess liquid from caps and discard soaking liquid.
• Hack each chicken thigh crosswise through bone into thirds with cleaver.
• Stir together soy sauce, rice wine, cornstarch, sesame oil, and salt in a large bowl until smooth, then add chicken, mushroom caps, scallions, and ginger and toss well to coat. Marinate at room temperature, stirring occasionally, 30 minutes.

• Transfer chicken mixture to pie plate and put in wok (or skillet), then steam, covered, stirring once, until chicken is just cooked through, about 25 minutes.

SAUTEED BOK CHOY WITH MUSHROOMS
