Chinese Chicken Cabbage Stir-Fry

Chinese Chicken Cabbage Stir-Fry

Healthy Fact of the Day

This dish is low in carbohydrates and rich in vitamins, thanks to the cabbage and carrots. Use low-sodium soy sauce to reduce sodium content and lean chicken breast for a protein-packed meal. Add more vegetables like bell peppers or snap peas for extra fiber and nutrients.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, thinly sliced
  • 4 cups green cabbage, shredded
  • 1 cup carrots, julienned
  • 1 small onion, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp oyster sauce
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1/2 tsp white pepper
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch (optional, for thickening)
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth (optional, for a saucier stir-fry)
  • Sesame seeds and green onions for garnish

     Instructions
  1. Prepare Sauce: In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil. If using cornstarch, dissolve it in chicken broth and add to the sauce. Set aside.

  2. Cook Chicken: Heat vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Stir-fry chicken slices until fully cooked, about 5-6 minutes. Remove and set aside.

  3. Cook Vegetables: In the same wok, add garlic, ginger, and onions. Stir-fry until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add cabbage and carrots, stir-frying for 3-4 minutes until tender-crisp.

  4. Combine: Return chicken to the wok. Pour in the prepared sauce and toss to coat everything evenly. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

  5. Serve: Garnish with sesame seeds and green onions. Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles

Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!

At around 45mg of caffeine per 20-ounce serving, they’re also a moderate choice compared to a standard coffee or energy drink. To keep things balanced, opt for a smaller size and skip any added sweeteners or syrups — the real fruit purées provide plenty of natural flavor on their own.
