Introducing ‘Chiso Ya’ (Chicken Sausage Vegetable Stir-Fry), a dish perfect for kids’ snacks, a hearty side for meals, or an impressive appetizer! This recipe uses frozen vegetables, Vienna sausages, and crispy yet tender chicken tenders, quickly made with a tangy and sweet ketchup-based sauce. It’s a versatile dish you can enjoy anytime without feeling heavy. Feel free to add other vegetables you have on hand, like minced garlic, bell peppers, or onions, for an even richer flavor. Making cute cuts on the Vienna sausages or shaping them like octopus will make them even more appealing to children!
Main Ingredients- 500g Vienna sausages
- 6 pieces chicken tenders (store-bought)
- 2 shiitake mushrooms (optional, if you have them)
- 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn, etc.)
- 1/2 medium onion
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, add 1-2 tablespoons of cooking oil to a pan and preheat over medium-low heat. Depending on your preference, make 2-3 slits on the Vienna sausages or cut them into a cute octopus shape. If you have shiitake mushrooms, wash them, pat dry, and thinly slice.
Step 2
Peel the onion and cut half of it into 6 wedges. Do not thaw the frozen mixed vegetables; have them ready. Stir-frying a variety of vegetables together makes the dish visually appealing and nutritious.
Step 3
Prepare the chicken tenders directly from frozen. It’s convenient to cook them without thawing. If the tenders are large, you’ll cut them into bite-sized pieces during cooking using scissors or a knife, so have them ready. (Tip: Lightly baking them in an air fryer beforehand will add extra crispiness.)
Step 4
Add the prepared Vienna sausages, shiitake mushrooms, and onions to the preheated pan and stir-fry briefly. Once the sausages start to turn lightly golden, add the frozen vegetables and continue to stir-fry. When the vegetables are about halfway cooked, place the chicken tenders in the pan.
Step 5
Now, add all the sauce ingredients: tomato ketchup, oyster sauce, sugar, lemon juice, basil, and pepper. Mix well. Increase the heat to medium and stir-fry until all ingredients are thoroughly combined. As the chicken tenders cook and soften, use scissors or a spatula to cut them into bite-sized pieces (about 2-3 cm). The dish is ready when the Vienna sausages are plump and slightly puffed, and the vegetables are tender-crisp.
