Scallion Chicken
This scallion chicken recipe is ready in 20 minutes! Tender chicken bathed in an Asian flavoured sauce with plenty of scallions - perfect for a satisfying meal.
Equipment
- non-stick pan
Ingredients
- 400 g Chicken thighs cut into small pieces
- 2 cup scallion chopped
- 4 tablespoon oil
- 2 tablespoon soy sauce
- ½ tablespoon dark soy sauce
- ½ tablespoon oyster sauce
- ½ teaspoon black pepper powder more or less to your liking
- 2 tablespoon corn starch
Instructions
- Mix the chicken thighs with soy sauce, oyster sauce, pepper and corn starch, then marinate for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, cut the scallions, separating the white parts from the green parts.
- Add the chicken pieces to a non-stick pan with oil over medium heat, and pan fry until fully cooked.
- Add the white parts of the scallions to the chicken and cook until softened. If you’re using larger chicken pieces or pieces with bones, cover the pan with a lid and cook until the chicken is thoroughly cooked. Finally, add the green parts of the scallions and stir for 10-20 seconds to cook them.
- Sprinkle more pepper powder or scallions if desired and serve with rice or noodles.
Notes
When cooking chicken dishes, safety comes first. Make sure the chicken is fully cooked through. A non-stick pan works best for this dish, especially since we use corn starch in the recipe. You can add sugar or honey if you prefer a sweeter taste, but I find that scallions become sweet enough once cooked.
