1
Slice the chicken breast thinly. Season with salt and white pepper powder, add starch and a little water, and mix well. Coat with oil to seal in the moisture and seasoning, which helps tenderize the chicken. Set aside.
2
Separate the white and green parts of the green onions—the white part is for seasoning, the green for garnish. Slice the garlic thinly.
3
Wipe the mushrooms clean with a damp paper towel rather than washing them to avoid excess moisture absorption. Slice thinly.
4
Heat the pan to medium heat. Pan-fry the mushrooms without oil or salt to draw out their moisture, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and set aside.
5
Increase heat to high and add oil. Cook the chicken until almost cooked through, about a few minutes.
6
Add the garlic slices and white parts of the green onion, stir until fragrant. Add the cooked mushrooms and mix well.
7
Taste and adjust the salt if needed. Garnish with the green parts of the green onion and serve.
