Ingredients

Ingredient Quantity
Bok Choy (Pokcoy) 3 bunches
Chicken breast (cut into small cubes) 250 grams
Egg 1 large
Red shallots (bawang merah) 5 cloves
Garlic (bawang putih) 3 cloves
Bird’s eye chili (cabe rawit) 5 pieces (adjust to taste)
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste
Chicken stock powder (kaldu bubuk) to taste
Sugar to taste
Oyster sauce to taste
Water as needed

Instructions

  1. Sauté Aromatics: In a large pan or wok, heat a little oil over medium heat. Add the chopped red shallots, minced garlic, and sliced bird’s eye chili. Sauté until fragrant, taking care not to burn the aromatics.

  2. Cook the Chicken: Add the cubed chicken breast to the pan. Stir-fry until the chicken pieces turn white and are cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Make sure to stir frequently for even cooking.

  3. Add Water: Pour in a small amount of water to create a slight broth. Allow the mixture to simmer for a few minutes, letting the flavors meld together.

  4. Incorporate Bok Choy: Add the bok choy to the pan, stirring gently to combine. Cook until the bok choy is tender but still vibrant green, about 3-4 minutes.

  5. Season the Dish: Sprinkle in salt, pepper, chicken stock powder, sugar, and oyster sauce to taste. Adjust the seasoning according to your preference, ensuring a balanced flavor profile.

  6. Add the Egg: Crack the egg directly into the pan, stirring quickly to mix it with the vegetables and chicken. Cook until the egg is fully incorporated and cooked through, creating a creamy texture throughout the dish.

  7. Serve: Once everything is well combined and the bok choy is cooked to your liking, remove the pan from heat. Serve hot over steamed rice or enjoy on its own for a light meal.
