Copycat Panda Express Mushroom Chicken
Ingredients
  • subheading: SAUCE:
  • unsalted chicken stock - or water. You can also add bouillon to water to make a homemade broth.
  • light brown sugar - You can adjust the sweetness of the sauce by using honey or maple syrup instead of brown sugar.
  • soy sauce - tamari, coconut aminos, liquid aminos, or Maggi seasoning sauce are alternatives.
  • oyster sauce - If you don’t have oyster sauce, you can substitute it with hoisin sauce or a combination of soy sauce and a dash of fish sauce for a similar umami flavor.
  • rice wine vinegar - Distilled white wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar are suitable substitutes for rice wine vinegar in terms of acidity and mild flavor. It can be used in the same quantity as rice wine vinegar in the recipe. If you prefer to use alcohol in your cooking, you can substitute white wine for rice wine vinegar. Use a dry white wine like Chardonnay or Sauvignon Blanc and reduce it slightly to concentrate the flavor before adding it to the recipe. If you don’t have any vinegar on hand, you can use lemon or lime juice as a substitute for rice wine vinegar. Keep in mind that citrus juice is more acidic than vinegar, so you may need to adjust the amount to taste. Mirin is a sweet Japanese rice wine that can be used as a substitute for rice wine vinegar, especially if you’re looking to add a touch of sweetness to the dish. Use it in a slightly smaller quantity than the amount of rice wine vinegar called for in the recipe.
  • cornstarch
  • subheading: STIR-FRY:
  • vegetable oil - Any neutral-flavored oil like canola, vegetable, or peanut oil can be used for cooking. If you prefer a richer flavor, you can use sesame oil for added depth.
  • white mushrooms and zucchini - While mushrooms and zucchini are classic choices, you can switch them out for other veggies like broccoli, onions, bell peppers, snap peas, or carrots. Feel free to get creative and use whatever vegetables you have on hand or prefer.
  • fresh ginger
  • garlic
  • sesame seeds - for garnish, optional.
  • thinly sliced green onions - for garnish, optional.
