Heat the mixture over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until it reaches a smooth and cohesive consistency, which should take about 5 to 10 minutes. Once ready, set it aside.

Preheat a large skillet or wok until it’s hot. Pour in some oil and add the seasoned chicken, cooking it over high heat until it is fully cooked, which will take about 2 to 3 minutes. Once done, remove it from the skillet and set it aside.

In the same skillet, add 2 crushed garlic cloves, chopped scallions, carrots, broccoli slaw, and/or bean sprouts along with a pinch of salt. Stir-fry these ingredients until they are tender yet still crisp, which should take about 1 to 2 minutes.
