Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1.25 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast diced into small pieces
  • 3 to 4 cloves garlic finely minced or pressed
  • 1 to 2 teaspoons ground ginger
  • one 14-ounce bag coleslaw mix shredded green cabbage and carrots
  • ½ to 2/3 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons hoisin sauce
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper or to taste
  • 1.5 to 2 cups mango diced in 1-inch cubes
  • cup peanuts honey-roasted or salted
  • cup fresh cilantro for garnishing or to taste
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons sesame seeds for garnishing

Equipment

  • Large Skillet

Method
 

  1. To a large skillet add the oils, chicken, and cook over medium-high heat until done, about 5 minutes; flip chicken intermittently to ensure even cooking.
  2. Add the garlic, ginger, and cook for about 1 minute, or until fragrant.
  3. Add the coleslaw mix (looks like a lot but wilts quickly), evenly drizzle the soy sauce (if you like your dishes on the ‘saucy’ side use 2/3 cup), hoisin sauce, add the pepper, stir to combine, and cook for about 5 minutes, or until cabbage is wilted and tender; stir intermittently.
  4. Remove from the heat, add the mango, peanuts, and stir to combine.
  5. Evenly sprinkle with cilantro, sesame seeds, and serve immediately.
