The trio of garlic, ginger, and scallion takes just seconds to finely chop in a food processor and only seconds more to cook, making it an ideal combination for fast-cooking dishes like stir-fries or fried rice. A light coating of soy sauce, mirin, and cornstarch prevents the chicken from sticking to the skillet while keeping the meat juicy. Tossed with bok choy, snow peas, and mushrooms, this is a recipe you’ll be turning to again and again.
