Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons peanut oil
• 6 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
• 1 bunch green onions, chopped
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips

1. Heat peanut oil in a wok or large skillet. When oil begins to smoke, quickly stir in 2 cloves minced garlic, ginger root, green onions and salt. Stir fry until onion becomes translucent, about 2 minutes. Add chicken and stir until opaque, about 3 minutes. Add remaining 4 cloves minced garlic and stir. Add sweet onions, cabbage, bell pepper, peas and 1/2 cup of the broth/water and cover.
