Yen Can Cook ~ Spring Onion Chicken Stir Fry
This quick chicken stir-fry comes together in less than 20 minutes and only requires ingredients that you probably already have. I usually serve it with another veggie dish and steamed rice for a simple Chinese home-cooked meal during weeknights.

3 deboned chicken legs or any parts you prefer (approximately 600g), cut into bite size
4 stalks spring onion, green and white part separated, cut into 1.5cm length.

1 tablespoon salt
