Instructions

  1. Marinate the Chicken
    In a bowl, mix the chicken slices with Shaoxing wine, soy sauce, sesame oil, and cornstarch. Let sit for 15 minutes.

  2. Heat the Platinum Large Gourmet Skillet
    Set to medium-high heat. Once hot, drizzle 1 tbsp neutral oil and swirl to coat.
    Tip: The skillet’s even heat will allow you to sear without scorching.

  3. Sear the Lobster (“Dragon”)
    Add lobster medallions, sear 1 minute per side until lightly opaque but not fully cooked. Remove and set aside.

  4. Velvet the Chicken (“Phoenix”)
    Add chicken to the skillet, stir-fry 2–3 minutes until 80% cooked. Remove and set aside with lobster.

  5. Aromatics & Vegetables
    In the same skillet, add ginger and garlic, stir 20 seconds until fragrant. Toss in snow peas, bell pepper, and bamboo shoots. Stir-fry 1–2 minutes for crisp-tender texture.

  6. Make the Sauce
    Pour in chicken broth, oyster sauce, soy sauces, sugar, and white pepper. Bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in the cornstarch slurry until slightly thickened.

  7. Combine & Finish
    Return lobster and chicken to the skillet, add green onions. Toss gently for 1–2 minutes until proteins are just cooked through and coated in sauce.
    Finish with a drizzle of toasted sesame oil.

  8. Serve
    Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve immediately over jasmine rice or hand-pulled noodles.
