Directions
- In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, grated ginger, and minced garlic.

- Add the shredded napa cabbage to the skillet and cook for an additional 2 minutes, until the cabbage wilts slightly.
- Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and toss well to combine with the vegetables.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- To serve, take a napa cabbage leaf and place a generous amount of the chicken and vegetable mixture on it.
- Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions.
- Roll up the leaf, folding in the sides, to form a wrap. Secure with a toothpick if desired.
- Repeat with the remaining cabbage leaves and filling.
- Serve the chicken napa cabbage wraps as a light lunch or dinner. Enjoy!
