30 min Hands-on time + 20 min soaking or marinating first
EasyDifficulty
6 stepsSteps

Method

  1. 1 Remove the bones from the chicken thighs, cut them into cubes, and marinate with oyster sauce and pepper for 20 minutes.
  2. 2 Sauté the mushrooms in a dry pan for 6 minutes until they release all their water, then remove them from the pan.
  3. 3 Sautéing dried mushrooms first prevents the dish from becoming watery and ensures the mushrooms have a rich, aromatic flavor.
  4. 4 Sauté the chicken over high heat for 5 minutes until golden brown on all sides.
  5. 5 Add the onions and garlic and stir-fry for 2 minutes, then add the mushrooms.
  6. 6 Mix cornstarch with 60 ml of water, then pour it into the sauce to thicken it, and sprinkle with chopped scallions.
