Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 tbsp butter (or vegetable oil) Use vegetable oil for less dairy.
  • 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 lb chicken breast, diced into bite-sized pieces Boneless chicken thighs can be used for richer flavor.
  • 2 cups cabbage, chopped Green or napa cabbage both work.
  • 1 large bell pepper, sliced Any color will do.

Method
 

Cooking Instructions
  1. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and melt the butter until foaming.
  2. Add the sliced onion and minced garlic; sauté, stirring, until the onion is translucent and fragrant (about 2–3 minutes).
  3. Increase heat slightly if needed, add the diced chicken, and cook, stirring occasionally, until all pieces are opaque and no longer pink inside (about 6–8 minutes).
  4. Stir in the chopped cabbage and sliced bell pepper so they coat in the pan juices.
  5. Cook for another 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are tender but still have some bite.
  6. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately while hot.
