Ingredients Method

Ingredients
 

  • 1 lb (450g) chopped chicken breast
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil
  • 2 crushed garlic cloves or 1 teaspoon 'lazy garlic' paste
  • 1/4 teaspoon artificial sweetener
  • 7 oz (200g) shredded white cabbage
  • 2 oz (55g) finely chopped red bell pepper
  • 4 oz (110g) shredded carrots
  • 5 thinly sliced mushrooms
  • 1/2 finely chopped red onion
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon white wine vinegar
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
  • Cilantro (fresh coriander) for garnish

Method
 

  1. Brown the chicken in a skillet and season it with salt and black pepper to taste.
  2. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it to one side.
  3. Heat the sesame oil in the same skillet, and sauté the vegetables with the garlic until the veggies are cooked to al dente (that is cooked but with a bit of crunch left in them).
  4. Stir in the vinegar, soy sauce, sugar or sweetener, hot sauce and ginger.
  5. Add the cooked chicken back in and mix well to combine.
  6. Taste the mixture.
  7. Add more Tabasco, vinegar, soy sauce, sweetener or anything else you think it needs.
  8. Serve with fresh cilantro leaves on top.
