  • Rinse the chicken breasts and pat them dry with a paper towel. With a sharp knife, slice the chicken crosswise into pieces about ⅜ inch (1 cm) thick. Heat a tablespoon of vegetable oil in a skillet and fry the chicken slices on both sides until golden. Transfer the cooked chicken to a plate and cover it. Cut the carrots and zucchini on the diagonal into thin slices. Halve the bell peppers, remove the seeds, and cut them into small strips. Cut the cabbage into large pieces. Sauté the carrots and bell peppers in well-heated vegetable oil for 3-4 minutes. Transfer them to a separate bowl and cover. Then, the same way, sauté the cabbage and zucchini. Add the cooked carrots, peppers, and chicken back in and cook together for another couple of minutes. Rinse the green onion, pat it dry, and cut it into 2-3 cm (about 1-inch) pieces. Add it to the chicken and vegetables, season with salt and pepper, and stir. Whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, and balsamic vinegar, pour it into the skillet with the chicken and vegetables, and simmer for about 1-2 minutes. Chop the walnuts into small pieces and toast them lightly in a dry pan. Plate the chicken and vegetables and sprinkle with the toasted nuts. The chicken breast with vegetables is ready. Enjoy!
