Directions

  1. Heat peanut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, fry almonds in hot oil until golden, about 2 minutes. Remove almonds from skillet with a slotted spoon. Stir fry chicken in remaining peanut oil until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in soy sauce, ginger, salt, and black pepper until fragrant, about 1 minutes. Add mushrooms, onion, celery, and bok choy, continue to cook and stir until vegetables begin to soften, about 2 minutes. Pour chicken broth into skillet, cover, and simmer until chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 3 more minutes.

  2. Mix water and cornstarch in a small bowl, stir into chicken mixture and cook until sauce is thickened, about 3 minutes. Sprinkle with almonds to serve.
