DIRECTIONS

If you are using dried shiitake mushrooms soak them in water and set aside. In a bowl add the chicken and marinade ingredients. Massage with your hands to combine. set aside for 20 minutes, while you prepare the other ingredients.

In another bowl add the chops suey sauce ingredients and mix. Set aside. This is the mixed stir fry vegetables (water chestnut, bamboo shoots, baby corn, bean sprout shoots) I use. It’s ok to use fresh ingredients. Drain and set aside.

To dice the garlic, cut off the end and crush it while still in the skin. Remove the skin. It should easily peel away.

Dice garlic until it is in small chunks. Set aside.

Take the strings off the celery. cut the celery into medium batons. Set aside.

Cut the tops and tails of the beans. slice in half on an angle. Set aside.

Peel the carrots. cut the carrots to size. Slice into batons. Set aside.

Squeeze the liquid out of the mushrooms then cut the mushrooms in half. Set aside. Have all the ingredients ready to cook.
