- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips
- 2 onions, thinly sliced

- 2 cups sugar snap peas
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce

- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
Instructions
- 1. Gather all ingredients: 2 tablespoons of peanut oil, 6 cloves of minced garlic, 1 teaspoon of grated fresh ginger, 1 bunch of chopped green onions, 1 teaspoon of salt, 1 pound of boneless skinless chicken breasts (cut into strips), 2 thinly sliced onions, 1 cup of sliced cabbage, 1 thinly sliced red bell pepper, 2 cups of sugar snap peas, 1 cup of chicken broth, 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 2 tablespoons of white sugar, and 2 tablespoons of cornstarch.
- 2. Heat 2 tablespoons of peanut oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Wait until the oil begins to smoke.
- 3. Once the oil is hot, quickly stir in 2 cloves of minced garlic, 1 teaspoon of grated ginger, chopped green onions, and 1 teaspoon of salt. Stir-fry this mixture for about 2 minutes until the onions become translucent.
- 4. Add the strips of chicken to the wok and stir continuously until the chicken is opaque, which should take about 3 minutes.
- 5. After the chicken has cooked through, add the remaining 4 cloves of minced garlic to the wok and stir well to incorporate.
- 6. Next, add the thinly sliced onions, sliced cabbage, bell pepper, and sugar snap peas to the wok. Pour in 1/2 cup of chicken broth, cover the wok with a lid, and let the vegetables steam for about 5 minutes.
- 7. While the vegetables are steaming, in a small bowl, mix together the remaining 1/2 cup of chicken broth, 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 2 tablespoons of white sugar, and 2 tablespoons of cornstarch. Stir until the cornstarch is dissolved.
- 8. After 5 minutes, uncover the wok and pour the sauce mixture over the chicken and vegetables. Stir everything together until the chicken and vegetables are well coated with the sauce.
- 9. Continue to cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens.
- 10. Serve the stir fry immediately, over hot rice if desired.
