Prep Time 15 minutes mins
Cook Time 20 minutes mins
Total Time 35 minutes mins
Large Skillet or Wok
Spatula or wooden spoon
Mixing Bowl
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 cup white mushrooms sliced
- 1/2 cup green onion thinly sliced
- 2 cups cabbage shredded
- 3 cups pre-cooked chicken shredded
- 2 large eggs slightly beaten
- 1/4 cup hoisin sauce
- 2 tablespoons coconut aminos optional (or use tamari)
- 2 teaspoons sriracha chili sauce
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add the sesame oil.
Add the sliced mushrooms and stir-fry 5–6 minutes until browned and their liquid has evaporated.
Add the shredded cabbage and sliced green onion and cook 2 minutes more, stirring frequently.
Stir in the shredded pre-cooked chicken and cook 3–5 minutes until heated through.
Push the mixture to one side of the skillet, pour in the beaten eggs, and scramble until just cooked; then mix the eggs with the other ingredients.
Stir in the hoisin sauce, coconut aminos (or tamari), and sriracha; reduce heat and cook briefly until the sauce is warmed and coats the ingredients.
- Use pre-cooked shredded chicken for speed.
- Substitute tamari if not using coconut aminos.
- Cook eggs until set but avoid overcooking for best texture.
