I have made this Egg Foo Yung again yesterday morning for breakfast as requested by my kids. Egg Foo Yung is a delicious Chinese omelette packed with red peppers, celery, mushrooms, onions, bean sprouts, scallions, chicken. What I love more about this is the slightly salty, sweet, and tangy gravy that binds everything together!

1/2 c. mushrooms finely chopped
1 c. cooked chicken finely diced (I use rotisserie chicken)
8 large eggs lightly beaten
1/2 red bell pepper finely chopped
4 scallions chopped (green & white parts)
1/2 onion finely chopped
1 stalk celery sliced thin
1/2 c. chopped fresh bean sprouts
1 1/2 c. chicken broth
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
3 tbsp low sodium soy sauce
2 tsp brown sugar
1 tbsp rice vinegar
3 tbsp canola oil
3 tbsp cold water
2 tbsp cornstarch
HOW TO MAKE EGG FOO YUNG
Step 1: Place the eggs in a large bowl. Whisk well. Now, add the red pepper along with the celery, mushrooms, onions, bean sprouts, half of the scallions, and the chicken.
Step 2: Add the chicken broth in a small saucepan followed by the soy sauce, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, and vinegar. Mix well until combined. Then, in a bowl, whisk cornstarch and water over low heat. Slowly stir this in the sauce in the pan. Keep stirring until the sauce has thickened and bubbles.
Step 3: Heat half tsp of canola oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add about a half cup of the egg mixture to the skillet once the oil is hot. Cook until the bottom is lightly brown. Flip and cook the other side further.
Step 4: When done, transfer the Egg Foo Yung on a plate and keep it warm. Do the same until the batter is all used up.
Step 5: Remove from the heat when done. Sprinkle over the remaining scallions and serve the Egg Foo Yung right away with gravy. Enjoy!
