Chicken Scallion Stir Fry image

Provided by Amanda Formaro

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
3 tablespoons canola oil
2 garlic cloves (minced)
1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
1/2 cup chicken broth
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
1 tablespoons sesame oil
1 teaspoon soy sauce
10 scallion stalks

Steps:

  • Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips about 2" long. Add the cornstarch and chili powder and mix well. Set aside.
  • Mix together the chicken broth, oyster sauce, sesame oil, and soy sauce. Set aside.
  • Wash and dry the scallions well. Cut off and discard the root ends, then slice the rest of the stalks into 2" to 3 " pieces. Set aside.
  • In a wok or skillet over high heat, add the canola oil. Heat oil on high until hot but not smoking. Add the chicken, garlic, and ginger, and stir fry until chicken is no longer pink, about 1 to 2 minutes. Stir to prevent sticking.
  • Add the chicken broth mixture and cook for another minute or two until almost half of the liquid has evaporated and the remainder forms a thick sauce. Add the scallions and toss together for 20 seconds. Remove from heat and serve over warm rice.

GINGER-SCALLION CHICKEN



Ginger-Scallion Chicken image

In this easy chicken stir-fry, adapted from Lan Hing Riggin, a home cook from Virginia who grew up cooking with her family in Hong Kong, slivers of ginger and scallions turn golden, adding their sweetness and pungency to the oil. A dash of soy sauce provides saltiness and depth, while a full cup of cilantro leaves, used as garnish, makes the dish a bit lighter and fresher. Fire seekers can add a sliced chile or two along with the ginger.

Categories     dinner, quick, weekday, weeknight, main course

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 large scallions, trimmed
1/4 cup peanut oil, or neutral oil such as grapeseed or sunflower, more as necessary
1 3/4 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs or breasts, cut into 1-inch chunks
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, as needed
1 cup roughly chopped cilantro leaves and tender stems
1 (2 1/2-inch) piece ginger, cut into thin matchsticks (about 3 tablespoons)
3 tablespoons soy sauce
Large pinch sugar

Steps:

  • Cut the scallions in quarters lengthwise, then cut crosswise into 1 1/2-inch-long pieces. You should end up with thin blades of scallions. Separate out the dark green tops from the pale green and white parts. (You don't have to be very thorough; some mixing of colors is fine.)
  • Heat oil in a wok or 12-inch skillet over very high heat. When it's shimmering but not smoking, stir in chicken and salt. Cook, stirring almost constantly, until chicken is barely cooked and no longer pink, 3 to 5 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer chicken onto a serving plate, leaving the oil in the pan. Immediately scatter cilantro and scallion greens (not whites) over hot chicken.
  • Return wok to medium-high heat. Make sure there are at least 2 tablespoons oil in the wok. If not, add more oil. Stir in ginger and cook until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Stir in scallion whites, soy sauce and sugar, and cook for another 30 seconds (if using a skillet, remove from heat). Immediately spoon the contents of the pan evenly over chicken and herbs. Serve right away.

SCALLION AND GINGER CHICKEN (STIR-FRY)



Scallion and Ginger Chicken (Stir-Fry) image

Arriving home late (again) I needed something that was quick, simple yet full of satisfying flavors. This recipe modified from another site did the trick. When I made this I added two medium zucchini, halved and sliced, and cooked them just after the chicken and before the sauce. Made this a complete meal.

CHICKEN AND SCALLION STIR-FRY



Chicken and Scallion Stir-Fry image

The chicken will almost resemble Chinese Bourbon chicken. It's sweet, it's salty, and with the tang of the onions and fragrance of the ginger and garlic, it's seriously addicting. I serve mine over brown rice but you can also eat it as a lettuce wrap.

SKILLET CHICKEN AND ZUCCHINI WITH CHARRED SCALLION SALSA



Skillet Chicken and Zucchini With Charred Scallion Salsa image

Baked chicken breasts have a reputation for being dry, but pan-searing bone-in, skin-on breasts before roasting them helps them render their fat. It also forms a protective coating, develops a crisp, deep-golden skin and adds an extra layer of flavor. In this one-pot recipe, zucchini is tossed with the rendered chicken fat, and everything cooks together in the oven. Swap in any seasonal, quick-roasting vegetable for the zucchini, like cherry tomatoes or asparagus, but don't skip the charred scallion and jalapeño salsa. The zingy lime, grassy herbs and barely there brown sugar really make this dish sing. If cilantro isn't your thing, basil makes a fine replacement, or try a combination of the two. Alongside? Steamed rice would be nice.

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 medium bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts (about 3 to 3 1/2 pounds), at room temperature
Kosher salt and black pepper
2 tablespoons canola or grapeseed oil
1 1/2 pounds zucchini (3 to 4 medium zucchini), quartered lengthwise, then halved crosswise
1/4 cup fresh lime juice (about 2 limes)
1 medium jalapeño, thinly sliced, seeded if you prefer
1 bunch scallions (about 7 or 8 scallions), trimmed and halved crosswise
1 cup roughly chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 teaspoon light brown sugar
Flaky sea salt (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Pat the chicken very dry and season generously all over with salt and pepper.
  • Heat the canola or grapeseed oil in a 12-inch cast-iron pan or other large, ovenproof skillet over medium-high. Once the oil shimmers, add the chicken, skin side down, and cook undisturbed until skin turns golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Flip and cook another 5 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate.
  • Remove the pan from the heat. Add the zucchini and stir to coat in the chicken fat. Season with salt and pepper. Do your best to arrange the zucchini in an even layer (some overlap is O.K.). Place the chicken, skin side up, on top of the zucchini, transfer to the oven and roast until the chicken is cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the salsa: In a medium bowl, stir together the lime juice and jalapeño; set aside. Heat a large skillet over medium. Add the scallions and cook, tossing frequently, until they begin to brown and char in spots, 4 to 6 minutes. Remove and set aside. When cool enough to touch, finely chop the scallions and toss them with the lime mixture. Stir in the cilantro, olive oil and brown sugar until the sugar dissolves. Season to taste with salt.
  • Remove the chicken from the oven and transfer to a plate or a cutting board for about 5 minutes. If you want your zucchini more golden, pop it back in the oven while the chicken rests. Slice the chicken, if desired, and return it to the pan or serve it on the bone. Drizzle a few spoonfuls of the salsa over the chicken and season with flaky sea salt, if you'd like. Serve with the remaining salsa at the table.

CHICKEN AND SCALLOP STIR FRY



Chicken and Scallop Stir Fry image

Originally this recipe came from Recipezaar's "Stir Fry Scallops" But I didn't have a lot of the ingredients so it ended up being very different! I loved the outcome and thought it would be best just to post a separate variation to that recipe. We ate it with rice but my family had suggested they would have liked it with rice noodles also. Hope you enjoy it as much as we did :)
