Time 16m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 teaspoons soy sauce
2 teaspoons dry white wine
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast half, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 small onion, thickly sliced
2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
1 large garlic clove, minced
1 poblano chiles or 1 red anaheim chili, seeded and thickly sliced
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1/2 cup fresh orange juice
2 ripe papayas, peeled seeded and cut into 3-by-1/2-inch strips (1/2-pound each)
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
salt & freshly ground black pepper
1 large scallion, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, combine the soy sauce with the wine and cornstarch. Add the chicken and turn to coat.
  • Heat the oil in a wok or large skillet over moderately high heat. Add the onion, ginger and garlic and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Add the chicken and stir-fry for 5 minutes. Add the poblano and crushed red pepper and continue stir-frying until the chicken is cooked through and the poblano softens, about 3 minutes. Add the soy sauce and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the chicken to a plate.
  • Add the orange juice to the wok and boil until slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. Return the chicken to the wok, add the papaya and stir-fry until hot, about 1 minute. Add the lemon juice, season with salt and pepper and transfer to a platter. Garnish with the scallion and serve.

I found that the papaya made the stir-fry a bit too sweet for my taste. I would omit it next time.

This dish is a bit spicy for my taste, but I still really enjoyed it. I would recommend using less chili pepper if you don't like spicy food.
