Ingredients

• 500 g Chicken breast
• 4 Eggs
• 6 Garlic cloves
• 3 tbsp Soy sauce
• 2 tbsp Oyster sauce
• 1 tbsp Honey
• 3 tbsp Vegetable oil
• 0.5 tsp Salt
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper
• 2 stalks Spring onion
• 2 tbsp Water

Directions

Step 1

1. Begin by cutting the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season with salt and black pepper. Mince the garlic cloves and finely chop the spring onion.

Step 2

2. In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, oyster sauce, honey, and 2 tablespoons of water to create the sauce. Set it aside.

Step 3

3. Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant but not browned, around 1 minute.

Step 4

4. Add the chicken pieces to the skillet and stir-fry for 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown on the edges.

Step 5

5. Pour the prepared sauce over the chicken and stir to coat. Let it simmer for 3-4 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

Step 6

6. While the chicken is cooking, beat the eggs in a separate bowl with a pinch of salt. In a clean non-stick pan, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium heat.

Step 7

7. Pour the beaten eggs into the pan and gently stir to make soft scrambled eggs, cooking for about 1-2 minutes until just set but still silky.

Step 8

8. Gently fold the scrambled eggs into the chicken mixture, allowing the flavors to combine evenly.

Step 9

9. Garnish the dish with chopped spring onion and serve hot with steamed rice or noodles.
