Although I found a recipe for Ginger and Sesame Oil Chicken, I ended up making a modified version of it for my in laws when I changed my recipe plan on the spur of the moment.  While I was grocery shopping, my initial intention was to cook the chicken with the broccoli and cauliflower.  At the last minute, I decided to cook this dish instead because I remembered that there weren’t many dishes that hubby liked to eat.

Since I made the decision at the last minute, I didn’t have the recipe on hand and had to improvise on the spot based on what I could remember.  It turned out that my MIL thought the flavour I made was really good and told me to remember how I made it so I could reproduce it in future.  Now a compliment about my cooking from my MIL is a really big thing, hence I’ve decided to write down the recipe here.

Ingredients:

• 1 chicken thigh, skin and bone removed, cubed
• 1 chicken breast, skin and bone removed, cubed
• Ginger, sliced
• 1 tsp garlic, minced
• 4 Tbsp sesame oil
• 1 Tbsp chicken concentrate
• 1 Tbsp soy sauce*
• 1 Tbsp dark soy sauce (for colouring)*
• 1 tsp sugar*
• dash of pepper*

Method:

1. Marinate the chicken with 1 Tbsp of sesame oil and 1 Tbsp chicken concentrate.
2. Heat remaining 3 Tbsp sesame oil and stir fry garlic and ginger.
3. Add chicken pieces, stir-fry until cooked.
4. Add remaining ingredients* and mix well.
5. Serve.
