Winter melon is naturally high in water, light on the stomach, and often used in Chinese home cooking when the body needs something gentle. The cordyceps mushrooms add fibre and colour.

Cut chicken into even-sized cubes, not too thick, so it absorbs the marinade evenly.
Mix chicken with all marinade ingredients, ginger and cordyceps. Marinate for at least 15 minutes.
Cut winter melon into roughly 1.5cm-thick squares and layer them in a dish at least 2 inches deep.
Lay the marinated chicken flat on top.
Steam over medium-high heat for 20 minutes. Finish with scallions.
