  • 200g baby corn, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch (mixed with 2 tablespoons water)

Substitutions and Variations

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Wok: Heat the wok over high heat until smoking slightly. Add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and swirl to coat.
  2. Stir-Fry the Chicken: Add marinated chicken slices into the wok. Stir-fry for about 5-7 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked. Remove chicken from the wok and set aside.
  3. Cook the Vegetables: Add another tablespoon of vegetable oil to the wok. Toss in garlic and stir-fry for 30 seconds until aromatic. Add onion, bell pepper, and baby corn, stirring continuously for about 4-5 minutes.

  5. Add Seasonings: Pour in soy sauce, oyster sauce, and hoisin sauce. Stir to coat the ingredients evenly.
  6. Thicken the Sauce: Add the cornstarch slurry to the wok. Stir until the sauce thickens, about 1-2 minutes.
  7. Finish Up: Drizzle sesame oil and give it a final toss. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Notes
