Low Carb Moo Shu Chicken

Ingredients:

Ingredient Quantity
Boneless, skinless chicken breasts, thinly sliced 1 pound
Soy sauce 2 tablespoons
Sesame oil 1 tablespoon
Olive oil 2 tablespoons
Shredded cabbage 3 cups
Sliced mushrooms 1 cup
Shredded carrots 1/2 cup
Green onions, sliced 3
Garlic, minced 2 cloves
Fresh ginger, grated 1 tablespoon
Hoisin sauce 2 tablespoons
Rice vinegar 1 tablespoon
Salt To taste
Pepper To taste

Instructions:

  1. Marinate Chicken: In a bowl, marinate the thinly sliced chicken breasts with 2 tablespoons of soy sauce and 1 tablespoon of sesame oil for about 15 minutes.
  2. Cook Chicken: Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook until it is browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside.
  3. Sauté Aromatics: In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Sauté the minced garlic and grated fresh ginger until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  4. Stir-Fry Vegetables: Add the shredded cabbage, sliced mushrooms, and shredded carrots to the skillet. Stir-fry for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
  5. Combine & Sauce: Return the cooked chicken to the skillet. Add the 2 tablespoons of hoisin sauce and 1 tablespoon of rice vinegar. Stir everything together until well combined and heated through, ensuring the chicken and vegetables are coated in the sauce.
  6. Season & Garnish: Season with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with sliced green onions before serving.
