Total: 35 min
  1. In a medium bowl, coat 200 g chicken breast strips with 30 g tapioca flour and set aside.
  2. Heat 2 tbsp high-quality sunflower oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and stir-fry until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add 50 g yellow pepper, 50 g red pepper, 40 g courgette, 30 g onion, 30 g orange carrot, and 30 g wood ear mushrooms. Stir-fry for 5 minutes until vegetables are crisp-tender.
  4. Return the chicken to the skillet. Add 20 g cashew nuts, 1 tbsp fish sauce, 1 tbsp oyster sauce, 1 tbsp fresh ginger, and 2 clove garlic. Stir-fry for another 3 minutes until everything is well combined and heated through.
  5. Season with 1 pinch fine salt and 1 pinch ground white pepper. Garnish with 5 g fresh chives and 5 g fresh coriander before serving.

Ensure the vegetables remain crisp by not overcooking them. The dish is best served immediately while hot.
