Ingredients

• 500 grams Chicken breast
• 250 grams Button mushrooms
• 3 pieces Garlic cloves
• 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger
• 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
• 1 teaspoon Chili flakes
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons Water
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 2 pieces Green onions
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Slice the chicken breast into thin strips and season with salt and black pepper.

Step 2

Clean and slice the button mushrooms. Finely mince the garlic and grate the ginger.

Step 3

In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, sesame oil, chili flakes, honey, cornstarch, and water. Stir well to form a smooth sauce.

Step 4

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken strips and stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until lightly browned and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Step 5

In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the garlic and ginger and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 6

Add the mushrooms to the skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they release their moisture and start to brown.

Step 7

Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and pour in the prepared sauce. Stir everything together and let it cook for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken and mushrooms.

Step 8

Slice the green onions and sprinkle them over the dish as a garnish before serving.

Step 9

Serve hot with steamed rice or noodles for a complete meal.
