Recipe Source: Lynn
  • 1 lb. boneless chicken breasts
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 sweet green or red peppers cut in strips
  • 1 cup thinly sliced mushrooms
  • 2 tablespoon each minced gingerroot and soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/4 cup fresh coriander (cilantro)

    Cut chicken into thin strips in nonstick skillet, heat oil over high heat and stir-fry chicken and garlic for 2 minutes. Add sweet pepper and mushrooms and fry for 1 minute. Stir together ginger, soy sauce, oyster sauce, 1-tablespoon water, sugar, cornstarch and cayenne pepper. Add to skillet and fry for 1 minute or until chicken is no longer pink inside and sauce is thickened. Sprinkle with cilantro. Makes 4 servings.

    Note: Can cut down even further on the points by sautéing the chicken and garlic in a little chicken broth instead of oil.
