Once in a while, we at home love to indulge in Chinese food. What I love about Chinese food is its quick to prepare and very flavorful. So it is perfect for a quick meal. This saucy Ginger Chicken With Oyster Mushroom and Snow peas goes very well with rice.
One thing that is a key technique in Chinese cooking is to try to cook on high heat and don’t over cook the veggies. The veggies should be tender yet crispy. Another technique that works well and really brings out the flavour is using cast iron wok. Cooking on high heat in a cast Iron pan imparts a beautiful smoky flavour.

The first stir fry dinner my husband didn’t complain about! He liked the honey in the sauce an I liked the fresh ginger flavor. I did decrease the honey to 3 TBSP. But everything else was the same. I definitely will make it again and add more vegetables.
looks yum, and colorful!
