Heat a medium-sized pan over medium heat. Add the oil, onions, and garlic. Stir until lightly browned. Add the chicken, stirring until chicken just barely begins to cook. Add soy sauce, salt, and remaining spices and stir all ingredients until chicken is well cooked. Add 2-3 tablespoons of water; cook for about 45 seconds and voila! There’s a hearty main dish that is perfect with steamed jasmine rice and stir-fried veggies (like a mixture of celery, bell pepper, asparagus, etc).
