A delightful and quick stir-fry recipe that combines tender chicken with fresh vegetables in a flavorful sesame sauce.
In a mixing bowl, combine the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and cornstarch. Mix until smooth and set aside.
Mixing the cornstarch with the liquids ensures a lump-free sauce.
Heat the canola oil in a wok over high heat until shimmering.
Ensure the wok is hot enough to quickly sear the ingredients.
Add the chicken to the wok and stir-fry until it begins to brown, about 3 minutes.
Cut the chicken into uniform pieces for even cooking.
Add the mushrooms, water chestnuts, and carrots to the wok. Stir-fry until the vegetables are tender-crisp, about 4 minutes.
Stir constantly to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
Pour the sauce into the wok and stir until the sauce thickens and coats the ingredients, about 2 minutes.
Cook the sauce until it thickens to your desired consistency.
Garnish with scallions and sesame seeds before serving.
Adding garnishes enhances the presentation and flavor.
Serve the stir-fry hot with your choice of rice or noodles. Enjoy your meal!
Serve immediately to enjoy the dish at its peak flavor and texture.
