1. Prepare the Sauce
1️⃣ In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, and cornstarch slurry (cornstarch mixed with water). Set aside.
2. Cook the Chicken
2️⃣ Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the sliced chicken and stir-fry for 4–5 minutes, or until cooked through and lightly browned. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
3. Cook the Vegetables
3️⃣ Add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet. Stir-fry the garlic and ginger for 30 seconds until fragrant.
4️⃣ Add the shredded cabbage and julienned carrots. Stir-fry for 4–5 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
4. Combine and Sauce
5️⃣ Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the vegetables. Pour the sauce over the mixture and toss everything together to coat evenly. Cook for 2–3 minutes, or until the sauce thickens slightly and everything is heated through.
5. Serve and Garnish
6️⃣ Remove the stir-fry from heat. Garnish with sliced green onions and serve hot over steamed rice or noodles.
Tips for Success
Cut Evenly: Slice chicken and vegetables uniformly for even cooking.
Use High Heat: A hot skillet ensures quick cooking and prevents soggy vegetables.
Customize Veggies: Add bell peppers, mushrooms, or snap peas for variety.
Storage Tips
Refrigeration: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Reheating: Reheat in a skillet over medium heat or in the microwave until warmed through.
Freezing: Freeze the cooked stir-fry for up to 2 months. Thaw in the refrigerator before reheating.
Medical Advice
Low-Sodium Option: Use low-sodium soy sauce and oyster sauce.
Gluten-Free Alternative: Substitute tamari or gluten-free soy sauce.
