Steps:

• Drain mushrooms, squeeze out excess water, discard stems and slice caps.
• Heat oil in a wok until it just reaches smoking point, add chicken, onions and ginger. Stir fry until chicken just changes colour, add soy sauce, sherry, sugar, five spice powder and water.
• Turn down the heat and cook gently about 15-20 min's until chicken is cooked through, add mushrooms, stir fry a few minutes more.
• While chicken is cooking, if making bean sprouts heat a small amount of oil in another pan, cook, turning and stirring occasionally until sprouts are just soft.
• Remove chicken from wok and keep warm, mix a little water with corn flour add to sauce and stir until mixture boils and thickens.
• To Serve: Place sprouts on a serving platter top with chicken and pour sauce over, serve immediately. Garnish with extra green onions if so desired.

Steps:

• Heat oil in wok and fry the larger joints on high heat for 3-4 minutes or until browned.
• Add Soy, Honey, Wine, Garlic and Ginger, stir well.

Steps:

• Begin heating soy sauce and water over medium flame. Add ginger, sugar, cinnamon, and star anise.
• Bring mixture to simmer and add chicken. Reduce heat to very low and cover casserole dish/pot. Make sure heat is as low as can be without turning off; simmering soy sauce can easily become rapidly boiling soy sauce, which can easily become a big mess to clean up.
• Cook chicken for 15 to 20 minutes, depending on the size of the pieces. Cut one open to check for doneness. Ladle chicken from sauce mixture and serve as is. Or if you're handy with a cleaver, chop up those thighs into smaller pieces. Garnish with scallions.
