ingredients

2 tablespoons soy sauce, plus extra for serving
2 tablespoons dry white wine
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon peeled grated fresh ginger (or more to taste)
1 large garlic clove, minced
1 lb chicken tenders, cut into bite-size pieces
3 tablespoons peanut oil or 3 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
4 ounces mushrooms, sliced
1 stalk celery, sliced diagonally into 1-inch slices
1 cup sugar snap pea, trimmed
¹⁄₂ red bell pepper, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
6 green onions, including some green tender tops, sliced (plus finely chopped green tops for sprinkling on top)
1 cup long-grain white rice, cooked according to package directions (3 cups cooked)

directions

In a large bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, wine, cornstarch, ginger, and garlic.
Stir in the chicken and let it stand at room temperature for 10 minutes.
In a wok or large skillet over med-high heat, add 1 1/2 tablespoons of the oil.
When the oil is hot, remove the chicken from the marinade with a slotted spoon and add it to the wok.
Reserve the marinade.
Stir-fry until the chicken is cooked through, 3-4 minutes.
Transfer the chicken to a plate.
Add the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons oil to the wok.
When the oil is hot, add the mushrooms, celery, sugar snap peas, bell pepper, and sliced onions and stir-fry until the vegetables are tender-crisp, about 5 minutes.
Return the chicken to the wok along with the reserved marinade and stir-fry until heated through and the sauce is thickened, 2-3 minutes; taste and add salt/pepper or red pepper flakes, if needed.
Sprinkle with the green onions.
Serve immediately with the rice and additional soy sauce.

This dish was delicious. I did double the fresh ginger, wine, soy sauce, and added a little extra garlic. (I did NOT double the cornstarch). This way, if you add a few more vegetables, there is plenty of flavorful sauce to coat every morsel. This sauce could be used on endless stir-frys. I too have an abundance of sugar snap peas from my garden. Thank you for sharing.

Made this for my family for dinner. Followed the recipe to a T. My family said it was good but didn't have as much flavor as they had hoped it would. Next time I'll try increasing the garlic and ginger and making more sauce.

This Stir Fry was "Super Good" and perfect to make using my garden snap peas and red pepper. I know I will make it again and again. I followed the recipe. As per your suggestion, I did increase the grated ginger. The only change I made was to sprinkle some Sesame Oil on the finished Stir Fry. - I did not serve this over rice. DH is a Diabetic. Rice doesn't work for us. - The amount of Stir Fry was perfect for us. (2 people) I'm not sure it would be OK for 4 as listed over 3 cups of rice. They might want more veggies and sauce. However if you want a great tasting Stir Fry, this is it. Thank you Ratherbe Swimmin.

Made this without chicken and it was easy and fast. I added a bit more garlic and fresh basil and it all came together nicely
