Aromatics

  • 0.25 tsp white pepper
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp ginger, julienned
  • 2 units spring onions, sliced into 2cm lengths

Sauces & Seasonings

  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp Shaoxing wine

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a bowl, marinate chicken thigh pieces with soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, cornstarch, sugar, and white pepper for 10 minutes.

  2. 2

    Heat cooking oil in a wok over high heat. Add marinated chicken and stir-fry until lightly browned and almost cooked through, about 3-4 minutes. Remove chicken from wok and set aside.
