Follow The Directions

01

Step
30 mins

In a wok or large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and diced serrano pepper. Sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds. (30 seconds)

02

Step
7 hrs

Add cubed chicken breasts to the wok. Cook, stirring frequently, until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink inside, approximately 7 minutes. Add water, one tablespoon at a time, if the wok becomes too dry. (7 minutes)

03

Step
0 mins

Pour in soy sauce, oyster sauce, and fish sauce. Stir to combine, ensuring the chicken is evenly coated in the sauce. (1 minute)

04

Step
4 hrs

Add sliced fresh mushrooms to the wok. Cook for approximately 4 minutes, allowing the mushrooms to soften and absorb the flavors of the sauce. (4 minutes)

05

Step
1 hrs

Incorporate the grated fresh ginger into the wok. Cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes, stirring continuously, until the ginger's aroma intensifies and its flavor melds with the other ingredients. (2 minutes)

For a milder dish, remove the seeds and membranes from the serrano pepper before dicing.
Adjust the amount of fish sauce to your preference, as it can be quite potent.
Serve immediately over steamed jasmine rice or brown rice. Garnish with chopped cilantro or green onions for a pop of freshness.
