How to make Chinese Mushroom Stir Fry
This mushroom stir fry works as a great side dish or entrée! It requires a ton of prepping and measuring ingredients before the cooking process.
Place 1 tablespoon of oil in a large pan over high heat. Add the mushroom and toss. Wait until the mushroom starts producing liquid (you will see the mushroom extract water) and then add ¼ cup of chicken broth, 1 tablespoon of honey, and 1 teaspoon of soy sauce. Cook the mushrooms for about 7 minutes or until the liquid evaporates. Remove the mushrooms and set aside – we will come back to them later.
Using the same pan, reduce the heat to medium. Add 2 tablespoons of oil, 1 tablespoon of minced garlic, 1 tablespoon of minced ginger, 1 teaspoon of red chili flakes (optional), and cook for about 45 seconds. Add the cup of snap peas and light green chopped scallions and toss for another 45 seconds. We are using the dark green scallions to garnish!
Increase the heat to medium-high and add the mushrooms back into the pan. Also add ⅓ cup of chicken broth, ¼ cup of soy sauce, ¼ cup of honey, 1 tablespoon of rice vinegar and finally 1 tablespoon of cornstarch. The cornstarch will thicken the sauce! Allow the stir fry to come to a boil and cook for another 3 minutes.
Garnish with dark green scallions and sesame seeds!

Notes
- This meal requires a TON of prepping. I would recommend mixing the “sauce for mushroom” batch in one bowl and the “sauce of mushroom and snap peas” batch in another bowl. Doing this allows for more time during the cooking process!
- Garnishing with sesame seeds and scallions really enhanced the flavor of the dish.
- If you would like a combination of sweet and spicy, the red pepper flakes are a great enhancement.
- You can use snow peas instead of snap peas
