Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 chicken breast halves, cut into thin strips
2 1/2 teaspoons white sugar, divided
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar, plus
1 1/2 teaspoons rice wine vinegar
1/4 cup soy sauce, divided
1/2 cup chicken broth, plus
2 tablespoons chicken broth
1/2 cup water
1 1/2 teaspoons sesame oil
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon cornstarch
0.5 (12 ounce) package uncooked linguine
1 tablespoon vegetable oil, divided
1 tablespoon minced fresh gingerroot
1 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic
1/4 lb fresh shiitake mushroom, stemmed and sliced
3 green onions, sliced diagonally into 1/2 inch pieces

Steps:

  • In a medium, non-reactive bowl, combine the chicken with 2 1/2 teaspoons of white sugar, 1 1/2 tablespoons vinegar and 1/4 cup soy sauce. Mix this together and coat the chicken well. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
  • In another medium bowl, combine the chicken broth, water, sesame oil and ground black pepper with the remaining sugar, vinegar and soy sauce. In a separate small bowl, dissolve the cornstarch with some of this mixture and slowly add to the bulk of the mixture, stirring well. Set aside.
  • Cook the linguine according to package directions, drain and set aside. Heat 1 tablespoon of the vegetable oil in a wok or large saucepan over high heat until it starts to smoke. Add the chicken and stir-fry for 4 to 5 minutes, or until browned. Transfer this and all juices to a warm plate.
  • Heat the remaining vegetable oil in the wok or pan over high heat. Add the ginger, garlic, mushrooms and green onions, and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Add the reserved sauce mixture and then the chicken. Simmer until the sauce begins to thicken, about 2 minutes. Add the reserved noodles and toss gently, coating everything well with the sauce.
