Ingredients
Scale
Protein:
- 10 chicken wings, cut in half
Vegetables:
- 6 mushrooms, sliced
- 2 green onions, chopped
- 34 slices fresh ginger
Seasonings and Sauces:
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1/2 tablespoon dark soy sauce
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Prepare a flavorful marinade by combining ginger, soy sauce, oyster sauce, cornstarch, dark soy sauce, and salt in a mixing bowl, thoroughly coating the chicken wings and allowing them to absorb the rich flavors for 20 minutes.
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium temperature, carefully positioning the marinated wings skin-side down to achieve a golden, crispy exterior through even cooking.
- Flip the wings periodically to ensure uniform browning and develop a deep, caramelized surface that locks in moisture and enhances the overall taste profile.
- Introduce fresh mushrooms into the pan, gently stirring them around the chicken wings to absorb the delectable pan juices and develop a tender, succulent texture.
- Allow mushrooms to soften and release their natural earthy essence, creating a harmonious blend of flavors with the seasoned chicken wings.
- Season the dish with additional salt and freshly ground black pepper, adjusting to personal taste preferences and enhancing the overall depth of flavor.
- Sprinkle finely chopped green onions across the surface, providing a vibrant garnish that adds a subtle, fresh complexity to the finished dish.
- Transfer the aromatic chicken wings and mushrooms to a warm serving platter, ensuring the dish remains hot and inviting for immediate enjoyment.
Notes
- Marinate longer for deeper flavor by refrigerating chicken wings up to 2 hours instead of just 20 minutes.
- Choose fresh, firm mushrooms like shiitake or button varieties for optimal texture and umami taste.
- Pat chicken wings dry before frying to ensure crispy, golden-brown exterior and prevent steam buildup.
- Adjust cooking time for different wing sizes to maintain juicy meat without overcooking.
