Here’s what you need:

• 500g chicken breast, sliced
• 7 dried chillies
• 2 cili padi, sliced
• 1/2 cup liquid aminos (soy sauce substitute)
• 1.5 tbsp oyster sauce
• 1 cup water
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 2cm ginger, minced
• 2 tbsp honey
• 1 tsp white pepper
• 1 red onion, sliced
• 2 medium carrots, sliced
• 1 small brinjal (eggplant), sliced
• 2 small Japanese cucumber, sliced
• Garnishing: Spring onions and white sesame seed

Here’s how you do it:

1. In a small bowl, combine liquid aminos, oyster sauce, water, garlic, ginger, honey and white pepper. Mix well.
2. In a pot, place chicken over medium-high heat and pour water to cover the chicken. Bring to boil and cook for 3-4 mins. Remove the chicken and discard the water (or discard the water slowly by covering the lid so you don’t have to remove the chicken).
3. Pour the sauce over the chicken and add in dried chillies and cili padi.
4. Bring the sauce to a gentle boil and cover the lid. Turn down the heat to medium-low and let it simmer for 20 mins.
5. Toss in onion, carrots and brinjal, cover the pot and simmer for 10 mins.
6. Toss in cucumber, cover the pot and cook for a further 5 mins.
7. Remove the pot from heat and garnish with spring onions and sesame seeds.
8. Serve hot, eat it by itself for something low calorie or with brown rice, or make ahead as meal prep! Enjoy!
