How to Make Steamed Chicken With Sausage And Mushrooms

Cut 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts into 1-inch pieces.
In a large bowl, whisk together 2 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp cornstarch, 1 tbsp sherry, 1 tbsp sugar, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp black pepper, 2 cloves minced garlic, and 1 tsp grated ginger. Add chicken and marinate for 20-30 minutes.
Remove stems from 8 oz mushrooms (cremini or shiitake recommended).
Slice mushroom caps into 1/4-inch thick slices.
Add 4 oz Chinese sausage, thinly sliced, to the marinated chicken along with the sliced mushrooms. Gently stir to combine.
Place the chicken mixture in a steamer basket that fits comfortably over a wok or pot with boiling water. Alternatively, use a 9-inch glass pie plate, ensuring it's microwave-safe.
**Steaming Method:** Steam over boiling water for 25 minutes with the lid on, ensuring the water simmers consistently. **Microwave Method:** Cover the pie plate tightly with plastic wrap, venting slightly. Microwave on high for 13-16 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and juices run clear.
Serve immediately over steamed rice. Garnish with chopped green onions (optional).
