Instructions

1

Prepare and marinate chicken

In a bowl, mix together hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, garlic, oyster sauce, soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, and Chinese five-spice powder. Toss the chicken strips in the sauce and let them marinate for about 10 minutes.

Step 1
2

StirFry Chicken

Heat a tablespoon of sesame oil in a large wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and stir-fry until it’s cooked through and no longer pink inside, which should take around 5 minutes. Once done, transfer the chicken to a bowl and wipe out the wok.

Stirfry the vegetables

Add the remaining tablespoon of sesame oil to the wok and toss in the shiitake mushrooms, napa cabbage, carrots, red cabbage, and scallions. Stir-fry the veggies until they’re crisp-tender, about 3 minutes, then pour in a splash of water to help steam everything a bit.

Step 3
4

Cook Egg with Veggies

Pour the beaten egg into the veggies and stir-fry for another 1 to 2 minutes until the egg is cooked and well mixed in. Add the chicken back into the wok, give everything a good stir to combine, and take it off the heat.

Warm and Fill Pancakes

Warm the Mandarin pancakes in the microwave for 30 seconds to a minute until they’re nice and soft. Spoon the chicken and veggie mixture onto each pancake, then fold or roll them up like a little wrap. Serve and enjoy!

Serving Suggestions

Serve with a side of hoisin sauce or soy sauce for extra dipping flavor. A simple cucumber salad or steamed bok choy pairs nicely to balance the richness. For a refreshing drink, try jasmine tea or a light lager.

Storage Tips

Store any leftover filling and pancakes separately in airtight containers. The filling can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated gently in a pan. Pancakes are best warmed in a steamer or microwave covered with a damp cloth to keep them soft.
