Cooking
  1. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

  3. Once the chicken is ready, toss in the minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute until that garlicky aroma fills your kitchen.
  4. Stir in the chopped cabbage and red bell peppers. Continue cooking for around 5 minutes until the veggies are tender-crisp.
  5. Pour in the soy sauce, stirring well to combine everything. Season with salt and pepper according to your taste.
  6. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to let the flavors meld beautifully.
  7. Serve hot, garnished with sesame seeds if desired.
