Main Ingredients
  • 450 grams chicken breast fillets, sliced into thin strips
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil for sautéing
  • 2 eggs lightly beaten for filling
  • 100 grams baby Bella or shiitake mushrooms, thinly sliced
  • 300 grams shredded cabbage or coleslaw mix
  • 60 grams shredded carrots
  • 6 pieces flour tortillas or mandarin pancakes for serving
  • 25 grams sliced green onions for garnish
  • 10 grams chopped fresh cilantro for garnish
Flavoring Ingredients
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 2 teaspoons freshly grated ginger
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
  • 15 millilitres water
  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • Salt to taste

Method
 

Cooking the Chicken
  1. In a large sauté pan over medium heat, add the vegetable oil until shimmering.
  2. Add the sliced chicken strips and cook for about 3 minutes. Flip them over and cook for an additional 3 minutes until they’re golden and fully cooked. Remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside.
Cooking the Eggs
  1. Pour the lightly beaten eggs into the same pan. Cook until softly set, stirring gently, then remove the cooked eggs and set them aside as well.
Sautéing Vegetables
  1. Toss in the sliced mushrooms, shredded cabbage, shredded carrots, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Sauté this mixture for 5 to 7 minutes until the cabbage wilts and the veggies become tender.
Combining Ingredients
  1. Return the cooked chicken and eggs to the pan. Stir gently to mix all the ingredients evenly.
Making the Sauce
  1. In a separate bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, water, rice vinegar, sesame oil, brown sugar, cornstarch, and salt until smooth.
Thickening the Filling
  1. Pour the sauce over the chicken and vegetable mixture. Stir constantly until the sauce thickens and coats the filling.
Serving the Wraps
  1. Spoon the warm filling into flour tortillas or mandarin pancakes. Garnish each wrap with sliced green onions and chopped cilantro.
