PF Chang’s is basically white people Chinese Food, saying move over China, we’re making things actually taste good. That’s up for debate, except for this recipe… Oh yeah we doctored this up to taste far better than the restaurant version. Enjoy

Get a large frying pan or wok with a generous amount of vegetable oil, roughly 3 Tbsp and get the pan to a nice high heat before applying chicken
Fry the chicken for about 4-5 minutes or until barely cooked fully
Remove from frying pan, allow to cool and mince the chicken until it is as fine as the mushrooms and onion
Keep the pan hot and add in about 1 more Tbsp of vegetable oil and cook down the garlic & onions. Make sure to not over cook the garlic
Add in the mushrooms, chicken, stir fry sauce and edamame (optional) for a few minutes under medium heat
I personally enjoyed the PF Chang's sauce a lot so I added half of it into the stir fry mixture and let it simmer until ready to serve!
