Stir-Fried Chicken and Corn

Must Try

The oyster sauce adds a lot of umami to this stir-fry, but is not overpowering. It also boosts flavor in marinades and is just delicious. If you can’t find ripe corn in the market, what else can you use? You can substitute peppers, peas or summer squash for the corn.
