One pan Chinese style chicken and cabbage stir fry
  1. Slice 10 oz (300g) of chicken thigh or breast (approximately two pieces, depending on their size) into thin strips.

  2. Place the strips in a large bowl. Add 2 tablespoons light soy sauce, 1 teaspoon cornstarch, and 1 teaspoon neutral oil. Mix well and set aside to marinate.

  3. Heat a frying pan or wok over high heat. Add 2 tablespoons neutral oil.

  4. Slice 3 spring onions into 5 cm (2 inch) pieces, reserving some green tops.

  5. Cook the white parts in the pan for 10 seconds.

  6. Slice 2 garlic cloves and add to the onions. Cook for about 20 seconds, until fragrant.

  7. Add the marinated chicken and stir-fry for about 4 minutes, until almost cooked through.

  8. Slice 1 cup (70 g) green or Napa cabbage. Add to the pan and fry for 1–2 minutes, until just wilted but still crisp.

  9. Meanwhile, mix 2 tbsp light soy sauce, 1 tbsp oyster sauce, ½ tsp cane or coconut sugar, and 3 tbsp water or chicken stock in a small jar (or bowl) until combined.

  10. Pour in the sauce. Toss over a high heat for half a minute to allow the sauce to caramelize.

  11. Add the green parts of the spring onions and cook for a further 10 seconds.

  12. Remove from the heat and drizzle 1 teaspoon sesame oil around the edge of the pan (for aroma). Stir once more and serve!
