Step by Step Method
Step 1
Chop chicken breast into cubes.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, beat egg whites and cayenne powder together. Add chicken cubes and toss in egg white mixture. Coat evenly.
Step 3
Over medium heat in a skillet pan, add 1 tablespoon of coconut oil.
Step 4
Once oil has melted, add in chicken cubes and brown evenly. Don't worry about cooking the chicken completely, there is more cooking time ahead.
Step 5
Empty the chicken out onto a plate and set the skillet back on the heat.
Step 6
Add remaining ingredients to the pan and bring heat to high. Once the sauce begins to bubble, reduce the heat to medium-low and stir continuously (2 minutes).
Step 7
Toss in the browned chicken pieces and coat the cubes in the sauce. Cook for another 6 to 8 minutes, until sizzling.
Step 8
Serve immediately. Garnish with scallions and sesame seeds, if you want to.
