Preparation:
Cut chicken into 1/2 inch pieces. Place in a bowl; stir in soy sauce and sherry. Let stand for 30 minutes. Spray a cold wok or large skillet with nonstick spray coating; preheat over med-high heat. Add onion; stir-fry 2 minutes. Add peppers; stir-fry 1 minute. Add mushrooms; stir-fry about 1 minute more or till vegetables are crisp-tender. Remove vegetables from wok or skillet; set aside.
Drain chicken, reserving the marinade. Add oil to wok. Add gingerroot; stir fry 15 seconds. Add half the chicken; stir-fry 3 to 4 minutes or till no longer pink. Return all chicken, vegetables, and bamboo shoots to wok; push from center of wok.
Stir broth, cornstarch, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper into reserved marinade; add to wok. Cook and stir till slightly thickened; toss gently to coat chicken mixture. Measure and refrigerate 2 cups mixture for Chinese Burritos (see other recipe). Serve remaining mixture while hot. |
