Firstly, we should immerse cordyceps flower and dang shen. We use 10g cordyceps flower and 10g dang shen for this food. We need to immerse them for 10 minutes. Then drain and save them for later.
Next, we should prepare some ingredients. Firstly, shred 3 slices of ginger, save them for later. Second, cut 2 red dates and denucleate. Then cut them into small pieces and save them for later. Finely mince 1 bunch of green onions, save it for later.
Now we should wash and cut the chicken. We use 500g chicken for this food. After washing it, cut it into small pieces. Please don't cut it into big pieces that will make the chicken hard to cook. Then save it for later.
Next, we should marinate chicken. Add 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 tablespoon corn starch, 1/2 teaspoon light soy sauce into the chicken. Then add cordyceps flower, dang shen, red dates, ginger into the chicken. Stir them evenly. It can help the chicken to absorb the ingredients' taste. Then marinate them for half-hour.
