Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup orange juice
- 3 tbsp soy sauce or tamari
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh mint, plus more for topping
- 1 Tbsp. grated fresh ginger (from a 1-in. piece)
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 1/4 cup plus 1 Tbsp. olive oil, divided
- 1 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs
- 6 cups shredded cabbage
- 1 cup matchstick carrots (from 2 carrots)
- 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup sliced almonds
Instructions:
- Mix together orange juice, soy sauce, mint, ginger, vinegar, and 1/4 cup of oil in a big bowl. Save 1/4 cup of the liquid in a medium-sized bowl; put chicken in it and mix well. Keep the rest of the mixture in the big bowl for later.
- In a large skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Place the chicken in the skillet in a single layer; cook and turn occasionally until the chicken is nicely browned and the internal temperature reaches 165°F, approximately 10 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and let it sit for 5 minutes before slicing it thinly.
- While the chicken is resting, combine cabbage, carrots, bell pepper, and almonds with the saved orange juice mixture; mix well. Serve by topping the mixture with sliced chicken, almonds, and mint.
