Name: Cantonese Chicken and Mushrooms
Ingredients: 1/2 cup oyster sauce; 2 tablespoons cornstarch; 2 tablespoons peanut oil; 6 scallions, cut into 1-inch pieces; 8 thin slices peeled ginger; 3 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped; 8 to 10 ounces sliced mushrooms, such as cremini, shiitake or a mix; 12 ounces baby bok choy, cut crosswise into 1 1/2-inch pieces; 1 1/4 cups low-sodium chicken broth; 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil Cooked rice, for serving (optional)

Directions

1 1/4 pounds chicken tenders or skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces;

Toss the chicken with the oyster sauce in a bowl. Mix the cornstarch with 3 tablespoons cold water in another bowl. Place both bowls near the stove with the remaining ingredients.
Heat a wok or deep skillet over high heat until hot. Add the peanut oil, then the scallions, ginger and garlic, and stir-fry about 20 seconds. Add the chicken mixture and stir-fry until the meat is no longer pink on the outside, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the mushrooms and bok choy.
Add the broth and sesame oil to the skillet and bring to a boil over high heat. Add the cornstarch mixture, return to a boil and cook, tossing, until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce is thick and glossy, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve with rice, if desired.
