Ingredients
  

Main ingredients
  • 1 pound Chicken Breast, thinly sliced
  • 4 cups Cabbage, shredded
  • 1 cup Bell Peppers, sliced (any color)
  • 1 medium Onion, sliced
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 3 tablespoons Soy Sauce
  • 2 tablespoons Sesame Oil
  • 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated (optional)
  • to taste Salt and Pepper
  • for cooking Olive Oil
  • Green Onions, for garnish

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by slicing the chicken breast into thin strips to ensure even cooking.
  2. Prepare the fresh vegetables by shredding the cabbage and slicing the bell peppers and onion.
Cooking
  1. In a large skillet or wok, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the chicken strips and season them with salt and pepper. Cook until golden brown and fully cooked, about 5 to 7 minutes.
  3. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside.
  4. In the same skillet, add more oil if needed, and toss in the minced garlic and grated ginger. Sauté for about 30 seconds.
  5. Add the onions, cabbage, and bell peppers. Stir-fry for 5 to 7 minutes until they are tender yet still crisp.
  6. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, pour in the soy sauce and sesame oil, and toss everything together until well combined. Heat through for another 2 minutes.
Serving
  1. Serve the Chicken Cabbage Stir Fry hot, garnished with green onions.

Notes

For added crunch, top with sesame seeds or chopped nuts. To make the dish healthier, serve it with a side of jasmine rice or quinoa, or enjoy it on its own for a low-carb option.
