Ingredients:
500g Chicken breast (shredded)
½-1 cup Oil
4 cloves Garlic (minced)
1pc onion (chopped)
1 tbsp. Ginger (sliced)
4 tbsp. Soy sauce
3 tbsp. Oyster sauce
3 tbsp. Vinegar
½ tbsp. Sugar
1pc Red chili (optional)
1pc Green chili (optional)
Directions:
Step 1: Prepare the Chicken:
In a pot, add the 500g chicken breast fillets, 3 cups of water and 1 tsp of salt. Bring to a boil and cook for 10-15 minutes or until fully cooked. Drain the chicken and let it cool down. Once cooled, shred the chicken into thin pieces.
Step 2: Sauté Aromatics:
In a frying pan, heat ½ cup of cooking oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic, chopped onion, and sliced ginger to the pan. Sauté until the onion turns translucent and the mixture becomes aromatic.
Step 3: Add Shredded Chicken:
Incorporate the shredded chicken into the pan and sauté with the aromatics. Stir occasionally and cook until some of the shredded chicken turns slightly brown, giving it a delicious flavor.
Note: If needed, you can add a bit of oil from time to time to enhance the crispiness of the chicken.
Step 4: Infuse Flavor:
Pour in the soy sauce and oyster sauce, mix, and ensure all the chicken is coated evenly. Continue to stir and sauté until the edges of the chicken are lightly toasted, creating a delightful texture.
Step 5: Balancing Flavors:
Drizzle the vinegar over the chicken mixture. Allow it to simmer and cook until the strong vinegar scent dissipates.
Introduce the sugar to balance the flavors and enhance the caramelization of the chicken.
Step 6: Crispiness and Heat:
When almost done and if you want a touch of heat, add the sliced red and green chilies. Incorporate them into the chicken mixture. Continue frying until the chicken flakes turn a bit crispy, and the chilies infuse their spiciness into the dish.
Cooking Tips:
Chicken Texture: Boiling the chicken breasts gently ensures they stay tender. Avoid overcooking to prevent dryness.
Balancing Flavors: Adjust soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sugar quantities to achieve your preferred level of saltiness, umami, and sweetness.
Spice Level: Control the heat by adding or reducing the amount of red and green chili according to your taste.
Serve & Enjoy! 💖
