  • 3 eggs, whisked 
  • 11 1/4 lb. chicken breast, cubed into 1 inch pieces (may substitute chicken thighs]
  • 1 (12 oz) bag broccoli slaw
  • 1 ½ cup shredded red cabbage (may substitute green cabbage)
  • 1 ½ cup shredded carrots
  • 1 red bell pepper, seeded and sliced 
  • 1 small yellow onion (1 ½ cups, sliced)

Topping Ingredients: 

Instructions

  1. Place a large skillet (at least a 12-inch skillet) over medium heat. Add 1 teaspoon oil (if the skillet is not non-stick, you may need more oil). Once hot, add the whisked eggs and scramble. Remove from the skillet and set aside. 
  2. To the skillet, add the additional 1 teaspoon oil as well as the cubed chicken. Sauté for about 2 minutes. Next add the remaining skillet ingredients, except for the dark green parts of green onion. The skillet will be very full until it cooks down. Continue to cook for 8-12 minutes carefully stirring occasionally. 
  3. Meanwhile, combine the sauce ingredients and whisk until well combined and smooth.
  4. Once the veggies are tender and cooked down and chicken is cooked through. Add the eggs back to the skillet, the dark green parts of green onion, and the sauce.  Stir to combine and allow to cook for another 1-2 minutes or until heated through. 
  5. Serve hot topped with cilantro, cashews, sesame seeds, and/or green onion plus a squeeze of fresh lime juice.

Notes

*If using ground ginger, add it to the sauce.
