The supermarket shelves have a variety of pastas.
It can be difficult to determine which form of pasta would be most suitable for a certain cuisine. We recommend using short forms of pasta such as penne, gemelli, or fusilli for any baked or stove-top pasta dish or recipe that incorporates chunky components like this one. This is because these types of pastas are suitable for baking or stovetop recipes. Due to the structure of these pasta variations, the rich, creamy sauce is able to adhere to the twists and ridges, which results in a wonderful combination. This ensures that all of the components of the meal are balanced pretty evenly. For the first step of this recipe, you will need to bring the pasta to a boil in salted water until it is almost completely cooked through. Next, drain in a colander and leave aside until ready for use.
Expert Tips
- Marinate longer for maximum flavor. If you allow the chicken to marinate a little longer, it will result in more flavorful oyster sauce chicken.
- Use medium heat and sauté. When stir-frying, it’s essential to cook your ingredients over medium heat while constantly moving them around the pan. This ensures that the chicken and vegetables retain their texture and develop a delicious sear.
- Make it spicy. Add some sriracha to the sauce for a bit of heat, or garnish the dish with some red pepper flakes.
- Any protein can be used. You can also use pork, beef, shrimp, or tofu in addition to or in place of the chicken.
