Slice chicken against the grain to separate the two muscles of the breast, then slice at an angle for even cooking.

Marinate chicken with a little salt, oil, and corn starch to create a slippery texture.

Prepare ginger by cutting it into julienne strips.

Smash garlic cloves flat, then roughly chop to avoid burning when cooked at high heat.

Cut green onions, using the whole onion except for the roots; slice the white part thinly for garnish.

Heat vegetable oil in a hot wok.

Add garlic to the hot oil, then quickly add the marinated chicken, making sure to use the surface area of the wok for faster cooking.

Once chicken is seared, add ginger to caramelize.

Add Thai oyster sauce, fish sauce, and organic brown sugar to the pan, mixing well to combine flavors.

Cook until chicken is cooked through and the sauce has reduced into a glaze, ensuring vegetables are tender but not overcooked.

Plate the dish and garnish with sliced green onions.
