  • Difficulty Level: Easy
  • Prep Time: 15 mins
  • Cook Time: 10 mins
  • Servings: 2 People

Ingredients

  • 3 tbsp of Kun Taste Studio Aromatic Soya
  • 250g chicken breast or thigh, thinly sliced
  • 3 stalks of celery, sliced diagonally
    1 small carrot, sliced into matchsticks
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 slice of ginger(optional)
  • 1 tsp cornstarch (for marinating)
  • 1 tsp vegetable oil

 

Instructions

  1. Marinate: Toss the chicken slices with 1 tbsp of Aromatic Soya and 1 tsp of cornstarch. Let it rest for 10 minutes (this "velveting" technique keeps the chicken silky).

  2. Sear Chicken: Heat oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Sear the chicken until just cooked through and lightly golden. Remove and set aside.

  3. Stir-fry Veggies: In the same pan, add the ginger and garlic, then the celery and carrots. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the celery is bright green but still crisp.

  4. Combine: Return the chicken to the pan. Pour in the remaining 2 tbsp of Aromatic Soya.

  5. Finish: Toss everything together for 1 minute until the sauce creates a light, fragrant glaze. Serve immediately with steamed rice.

Pro Tips

  • Celery has a natural saltiness that pairs perfectly with the floral, woody notes of the sand ginger in our Aromatic Soya.

  • Slice the celery on a sharp diagonal (bias cut) to create more surface area for the sauce to cling to.

  • Do not overcook the celery; it should retain a "snap" to provide a textural contrast to the tender chicken.
