This chicken chop suey tastes very similar to the one at my favorite Chinese restaurant. There is a lot of chopping, but it's well worth the effort! We like it with noodles or vegetable fried rice.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • 1 teaspoon olive oil, divided

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into small pieces

  • 1 large green bell pepper, cut into strips

  • 1 large onion, sliced

  • 1 cup thinly sliced celery

  • ½ cup thinly sliced carrots

  • 2 cups thinly sliced bok choy

  • 1 ½ cups bean sprouts

  • 2 teaspoons water

  • 1 ½ teaspoons cornstarch

Directions

  1. Heat 1/2 teaspoon oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add chicken; cook until golden on the outside and no longer pink in the center, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from skillet.

  2. Heat remaining 1/2 teaspoon oil in the skillet. Add green bell pepper, onion, celery, and carrot.

  3. Mix boiling water, soy sauce, bouillon cube, salt, and sugar together in a bowl; add to the bell pepper mixture. Bring to a simmer; cook until carrots are tender, about 7 minutes. Add bok choy and bean sprouts. Cook until bok choy is tender, about 5 minutes.
