Step-by-Step Instructions for Spicy Chicken Stir-Fry
- Begin by slicing the chicken breasts into thin strips, about ½ inch thick for even cooking. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
- In a skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat until foaming and slightly browned.
- Add the chicken strips in a single layer, stir-fry for 5–7 minutes until browned and no longer pink. Remove and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add sliced onion and sauté for 3 minutes until softened. Then add minced garlic and jalapeño, cooking for an additional minute.
- Toss in the shredded cabbage and diced orange pepper. Cook for 2–3 minutes until the cabbage begins to wilt.
- Add the chicken stock, oyster sauce, and soy sauce, stirring until the vegetables are well coated and the mixture bubbles slightly.
- Cook for another 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally for a tender-crisp texture.
- Return the chicken to the skillet, mixing thoroughly and heating for 2–3 minutes to warm through.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning with extra salt and pepper if necessary, then serve immediately.
