Instructions
- Heat up a large wok on medium-high heat with olive oil.
- Flavor your chicken with garlic salt, pepper, and a hint of red pepper flakes, to your liking. Place it into a preheated wok and cook until the chicken is thoroughly done.
- While the chicken is cooking, make the sauce at the same time. Mix together all the sauce ingredients using a whisk and then set aside for later use.
- Place the chicken on a plate and set it aside. Add extra olive oil if necessary, then fry the garlic and ginger until they release their aroma.
