Mu Shu Stoup Recipes

MU SHU IN MOMENTS

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over high heat until hot but not smoking, then cook eggs, stirring, until just cooked through. Transfer scrambled eggs to a plate. Add remaining 3 tablespoons oil to skillet and heat until hot but not smoking, then cook ginger, garlic, and red pepper flakes, stirring, until garlic is golden, about 1 minute. Add coleslaw mix and 2 tablespoons water and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until coleslaw is wilted, about 5 minutes.
• Stir together soy sauce, sesame oil, remaining 2 tablespoons water, and hoisin sauce in a small bowl. Add to coleslaw mixture along with scallions and eggs and cook, stirring, 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Immediately put tortillas between 2 dampened paper towels on a microwave-safe plate and microwave on high power until tortillas are hot, about 1 minute.
• To assemble, spread hoisin on each tortilla and top with mu shu mixture, chicken, and scallions, then roll up.

MOO SHU CHICKEN

Steps:

• Whisk 2 tablespoons water, 2 teaspoons sesame oil, and cornstarch together in a large bowl. Stir in chicken and set aside.
• Whisk remaining 4 tablespoons water, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, hoisin sauce, oyster sauce, and soy sauce together in a separate bowl. Set aside.
• Heat 1 teaspoon vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add eggs and cook 3 minutes; flip and cook until firm and set, about 3 minutes more. Transfer to a cutting board and slice into thin strips.
• Add chicken mixture to the same skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken for 6 minutes; flip and cook until chicken is golden brown and juices run clear, about 6 minutes more. Remove from heat and set aside.
• Heat remaining teaspoon vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add cabbage, shiitake mushrooms, garlic, and sherry. Cook until cabbage starts to wilt, about 2 minutes.
• Add chicken, eggs, and sauce mixture to cabbage mixture. Cook and stir until sauce has thickened, about 5 minutes. Toss in green onions and serve immediately.

MU SHU STOUP

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil at the bottom of a soup pot over medium-high to high heat and add protein of choice and stir fry: shrimp until just pink, chicken or pork until lightly browned. Add mushrooms, carrots and garlic, cook for 2 minutes, then add cabbage and wilt it, 5 minutes.
• While cabbage cooks, add 2 tablespoons vegetable oil to a skillet and arrange pot stickers in it. Add 2/3 cup water and turn on to medium-high heat. Cook for 8 minutes to evaporate the water, then let the pot stickers brown 1 minute more.
• Add scallions, soy sauce and black pepper and stir to combine, then add stock and bring to a boil. Stir in beaten eggs and continue to stir in pot until they are cooked and scattered throughout the stoup.
• Place a few pot stickers in the bottom of a soup bowl and top with soup.
