Hello everyone! This time, the recipe I'd like to share is a plum and chicken stir-fry dish. If you'd like to know how this new and delicious dish tastes, please try cooking it at least once.
Ingredients
- About 2 lbs chicken
- 2 tablespoons cooking oil
- 2 tablespoons clear fish sauce
- 1 tablespoon cooking wine
- 153 grams plums
- 2 stalks spring onion (thinly sliced), 2 cloves garlic (thinly sliced), and 1/4 of an onion (thinly sliced)
- 4 slices ginger
- 2 star anise flowers
- 500 ml hot water
Ingredients needed for the sauce
- 2 tablespoons clear fish sauce
- 1 tablespoon dark fish sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
Step-by-step method
1. Cut the chicken into small pieces, then blanch them in boiling water for about 30 seconds. Afterward, scoop out the chicken pieces and place them in a bowl.
2. Marinate the blanched chicken with 2 tablespoons of fish sauce and let it rest for about 15 minutes. (Drain the liquid right before frying.)
3. Heat a pot, add 2 tablespoons of oil, and add the chicken pieces to fry. After frying for about 1 minute, flip the chicken pieces over to the other side and continue frying.
4. Once the chicken turns golden brown, push it to one side of the pot. Then add the ginger, garlic, spring onion, and onion, and sauté until fragrant. Add about 500 ml of hot water, enough to submerge the chicken. Simmer on low heat for about 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, add the clear fish sauce, dark fish sauce, and salt, and stir well to combine.
5. Next, add the plums and continue simmering until the plums are cooked through. Once the fruit is cooked and the sauce in the pot has thickened, add the sesame oil and stir well to combine.
Once all these steps are complete, remove the pot from the heat and transfer the dish into a bowl. Right before serving, sprinkle some chopped spring onion on top.
And there you have it — a delicious plum and chicken stir-fry dish!
