Chopped up a head of green cabbage, sliced a brown onion into wedges
and cut up 2 boneless chicken breasts into bite sized pieces; heated
up the wok; added some canola and sesame oils; threw in the chicken
for a few minutes and removed; added the onions, then cabbage. When
cooked to a crunchy texture I added back the chicken and began to
season with oyster sauce, fish sauce, Sriracha sauce, a splash of soy
and some Bangkok Blend from Penzey's. No rice since we watch carbs.
It was delicious.
