Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients
Gather all your ingredients before starting.
Slice the green onions, keeping the bulbs and green tops separate.
Chop the chicken into bite-sized pieces, shred the cabbage, and mince the ginger and garlic.

Step 2: Start the Stir Fry
Heat oil in a large skillet over high heat.
Add the sliced onion bulbs and stir fry quickly to release their flavor.
Toss in the ginger and garlic and stir fry for another minute, reducing the heat slightly to avoid burning.

Step 3: Cook the Cabbage
Add the shredded cabbage and stir well.
Cook for about 2 minutes until it softens slightly and takes up less space in the pan.
I love using chopsticks to stir because it keeps everything moving lightly.

Step 4: Add Sauce and Chicken
Pour the soy sauce and water over the cabbage and stir to coat evenly.
Cook for another 2–3 minutes until most of the liquid has evaporated and the cabbage is tender.
Push the cabbage aside, add the chicken, and stir fry until it’s cooked through and juicy.

Step 5: Finish and Garnish
Once the chicken is done and the cabbage is tender-crisp, remove the pan from the heat.
Sprinkle sesame seeds or a drizzle of sesame oil over the top, along with red chili flakes for heat.
Top with the sliced green onion stalks and serve immediately while hot and flavorful
