Cut chicken in half lengthwise then slice thinly. Place in a bowl with baking soda, use fingers to coat. Set aside for 20 minutes.

Rinse well, pat dry with paper towel then place in a bowl.

Mix together seasoning.

Sprinkle 1 tsp of seasoning over chicken. Mix to coat then set aside for 10 minutes.

Place all ingredients except water in a bowl. Add remaining seasoning. Mix, then add water and mix.

Heat oil in wok or skillet over high heat. Add onion and garlic, stir fry for 1 minute.

Add chicken and stir fry for 2 minutes until just cooked through and a bit browned.
