Heat oil in a pan or wok for frying eggs.

Crack the eggs into a separate bowl before cooking to check for freshness.

Fry the eggs in the heated oil until desired doneness (half-cooked or fully cooked).

Set aside the fried eggs once cooked.

Add more oil to the same pan and fry ginger slices until crispy.

Remove the crispy ginger and set aside, leaving the oil in the pan.

In a deeper wok, add sesame oil and mix with the ginger oil from frying the ginger.

Sauté ginger slices in the oil for 1-2 minutes until browned.

Add the marinated chicken to the sautéed ginger and brown it slightly.

Pour in a generous amount of yellow rice wine mixed with hot water (50/50 ratio).

Season with one teaspoon of salt and bring to a boil.

Cover the wok and let it cook for 10-15 minutes.

After 12-13 minutes, add the fried eggs to the chicken and let cook for another 2-3 minutes.

Before serving, adjust seasoning with salt and sugar if desired.

Garnish with fried ginger and soaked goji berries.
