Ready In: 20 Minutes
Prep Time: 30 Minutes
Cook Time: 10 Minutes
Serves 4
DIRECTIONS
Heat a serving platter in a 150°F oven.
In a small bowl, combine all the ingredients for the one-step sauce, mixing well. Set aside.
Heat a wok or wide sauté pan over high heat. Add 1 tbsp of the oil and continue heating until the oil shimmers.
Add the chicken and stir-fry for about 1 minute. Remove from the pan to a plate.
With the heat still on high, add the remaining 1 tbsp oil, allow it to heat, and then add the onion and ginger. Stir-fry until the onion scarcely browns around the edges, about 1 minute.
Add the garlic and asparagus and give a few stirs. Return the chicken to the pan, tossing with the other ingredients.
Pour in the reserved sauce and bring quickly to a boil. Cover, reduce the heat to medium-low, and cook until aromatic vapors escape, about 1 minute.
Uncover and taste to see if you need to add a touch of salt. Quickly stir the cornstarch mixture, then add to the pan. Bring to a boil and cook until the sauce thickens, about 30 seconds. Remove to the warmed serving platter and serve right away.
