How to Make Chinese Mushroomherd's Side Dish

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat until shimmering.
  2. Add 1/2 cup chopped onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 3 minutes.
  3. Add 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 tablespoon minced ginger, 1 small red chili pepper (finely chopped or to taste), 1 cup snow peas, 1/2 cup sliced bell pepper (any color), and 1 cup sliced mushrooms (cremini, shiitake, or a mix).
  4. Stir-fry until the vegetables are tender-crisp and most of the moisture has evaporated, about 5-7 minutes.
  5. Stir in 2 tablespoons oyster-flavored sauce and 1 tablespoon dry sherry or Chinese cooking wine.
  6. Cook for another minute, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
  7. Serve hot over rice or noodles. Garnish with chopped green onions, if desired.
