Ingredients
- 1 Tablespoon soy sauce low-sodium or tamari
- 2 Tablespoons fish sauce
- ¼ cup chicken broth low-sodium
- 1 Tablespoon sugar
- 1 ½ teaspoons cornstarch or arrowroot powder
- 4 large egg
- 4 teaspoons olive oil
- 1 jalapeno pepper ribs and seeds removed, finely chopped
- 1 onion thinly sliced, small
- 1 bell pepper thinly sliced, small green
- 4 garlic minced, cloves
- 5 cups green cabbage about half a medium head, finely shredded
- ½ cup cilantro packed roughly chopped fresh or Thai basil
- 2 tablespoons peanuts finely chopped dry-roasted unsalted
Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, fish sauce, broth, sugar, and cornstarch.
- In another small bowl, beat the eggs.
- In a 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat 2 teaspoons of the oil over medium-high heat. Add the jalapeño, onion, and pepper, and cook, stirring frequently, until tender but still crisp, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Transfer to a plate.
- Add the remaining 2 teaspoons of oil to the skillet. Add the cabbage and cook, stirring frequently, until tender but still crisp, about 5 minutes.
- Add the eggs, stir into the cabbage, and cook, stirring constantly, until just set, about 2 minutes.
- Add the soy sauce mixture, stir well, and bring the mixture to a boil, and cook until the cabbage is coated in a thick, glossy sauce. Stir in the onions and peppers. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the fresh cilantro. Sprinkle the the peanuts over the top and serve.
