MOO GOO GAI PAN III

Moo Goo Gai Pan IIi image

This is probably the first stir fry recipe I ever tried. It was in the little recipe booklet that came with my first wok. It still ranks with my favorites. Remember the essence of Chinese cooking, buy what is cheap and cook it well. Portions and cooking time are a guess. If you use anything frozen, thaw before cooking.
