How to make it
- I noticed that if I did my vegetables first and removed them prior to doing up the chicken, the colors remained in the vegetables and were crisp, so we will be cooking them in that order.
- Have all your ingredients out and ready.
- Slice/dice/mince up all your ingredients.
- In one bowl, place your chicken and 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, one dash of chili flakes, one tablespoon hoisin sauce, stir till combined and set aside.
- In second bowl, place one cup of water along with cornstarch, stir till well incorporated, and set aside.
- Heat wok with one tablespoon of cooking oil. Make sure it's super hot and ready by taking one piece of broccoli - if it's jumping around, your wok is ready.
- Put broccoli in wok and add two tablespoons water. Stir and cook for 4 minutes, till almost done and water has evaporated.
- Take out broccoli and put in bowl that you have the sliced cabbage in.
- Next grab that sliced onion, add a little more oil as needed. Stir fry till nice and brown. Place this along with cabbage and broccoli you had set aside earlier.
- Add chicken, stir fry till pink color is gone. Add garlic and let cook one minute.
- Bring back the cooked onions, broccoli and uncooked cabbage.
- Add all other remaining ingredients.
- Let cook for three or more minutes, stirring frequently, sauce will thicken slightly.
- Call hungry troops to table and serve with rice - voila and enjoy!
