  • 3 tbsp oil
  • 1 tbsp Cornstarch

Instructions

  1. 1.

    Mix 3 tbsp soy sauce with ginger, cornstarch, salt, and pepper. Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and coat them with the sauce.

    Peel and slice carrots and knollensellerie into thin strips. Wash, trim, and cut the white and light green parts of the leek into rings. Peel the onion, halve it lengthwise, and slice into thin slivers. Peel the garlic and finely chop it.

    Add the remaining oil to the pan and sauté onions, carrots, and knollensellerie for 2–3 minutes while stirring. Then add leek and garlic and cook another 2–3 minutes. Season with the rest of the soy sauce, salt, and pepper. Return the chicken to the pan, mix well, and simmer for an additional 5 minutes. Serve the chicken ragout in bowls with rice.
