How to Make Chinese Garlic Sauce

  1. Heat a wok or large deep pan over high heat until it is very hot (about 1-2 minutes).
  2. Add 2 tablespoons of oil and heat until it is smoking. Add 1 tablespoon minced ginger and 3 cloves minced garlic. Stir-fry for 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Pour in 1/4 cup oyster sauce and 1/4 cup chicken stock (or water). Bring to a simmer and cook for 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
  4. Pour the luscious garlic sauce generously over your favorite fried rice, white rice, chicken, or other protein. Garnish with chopped green onions, if desired.
