Wok cooking

[mcc1961]

Do you have to precook chicken and beef before you put it in the wok,and what methods should you use to precook them?Also should you always use a high heat setting for stir fry?

MCC wok cooking needs very high heat and good prep for speed. The meat should be raw and sliced thinly and uniform in thickness and size. I do this by part freezing it. Cut your veg thinly on the bias. Heat your oil till it starts to smoke.

No, like BdF said, the protein should always be raw and the wok should always be screaming hot.

I cook my meat until about 75 to 80% done then take it out. Cook my veggies until they are almost done add my sauce and put the meat back in.

Depending upon what I am cooking I will use a hot wok or a screaming hot wok.

This thread will show you what I normally do. For this I use a hot wok.
