Ingredients
  

For the Stir-Fry :

  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil
  • 1 medium-sized yellow onion chopped
  • 1 medium-sized head of green cabbage thinly sliced
  • 1 large carrot grated
  • 1 red bell pepper cut into matchsticks
  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, chopped into bite-sized pieces
  • 4 large cloves of garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger peeled and grated
  • 5 stalks green onion chopped
  • Sea salt to taste

For the Sauce :

  • 2 tablespoons sunflower seed butter or peanut butter
  • 2 tablespoons liquid aminos
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup optional
  • 1 teaspoon curry powder

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the sunflower seed butter (or peanut butter), liquid aminos, rice vinegar, maple syrup (if using), and curry powder. Set aside.
  • Sauté Vegetables: Heat the avocado oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chopped yellow onion and cook until softened, about 2–3 minutes.
  • Cook Chicken: Add the chicken pieces to the skillet and season with a pinch of sea salt. Stir-fry until fully cooked and slightly golden, about 6–7 minutes.
  • Add Aromatics: Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking until fragrant, about 1–2 minutes.
  • Combine Vegetables: Add the cabbage, grated carrot, and red bell pepper to the skillet. Stir-fry until the vegetables are tender but still crisp, about 5–6 minutes.
  • Incorporate Sauce: Pour the prepared sauce over the stir-fry and toss until everything is evenly coated. Cook for an additional 2–3 minutes to let the flavors meld together.
  • Finish with Green Onions: Sprinkle the chopped green onions on top before serving.
  • Serve: Enjoy your Thai-Inspired Chicken and Cabbage Bowls as is, or pair them with steamed rice, quinoa, or cauliflower rice for a complete meal.
