1. In a bowl, combine minced garlic, grated ginger, soy sauce, oyster sauce, vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper. Stir well to make a marinade.
2. Place chicken breasts in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Make sure the chicken is evenly coated. Let it marinate for 15 minutes.
3. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add sliced onions and cook until they become translucent.
4. Remove the chicken from the marinade, reserving the marinade for later use. Place the chicken in the skillet and cook until both sides turn golden brown, about 5-7 minutes per side.
5. Pour the reserved marinade into the skillet and bring it to a simmer. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the sauce has thickened.
6. Serve the garlic ginger chicken over a bed of cooked rice.
7. Optional: Garnish with chopped green onions or sesame seeds for added flavor and visual appeal.

Cooking a new dish
Starting to cook a new dish begins with selecting a recipe that matches your skill level and gathering all the necessary ingredients. Before diving in, read through the entire recipe to understand the steps and timing involved. Next, prepare your workspace by cleaning the countertops, organizing your tools, and setting out ingredients. Prepping the ingredients—such as washing, chopping, and measuring—is key to ensuring a smooth cooking process. As you cook, follow the recipe step by step, taking your time and tasting along the way to adjust flavors. Finally, serve the dish with care and enjoy the fruits of your labor.
Preparing your workspace correctly
Preparing your workspace involves starting with clean countertops, organizing your tools and equipment, and setting out all the necessary ingredients within reach. Arrange your tools, like knives, cutting boards, and measuring cups, close by for easy access, and pre-measure ingredients if possible to save time during cooking. It's helpful to have a trash bowl for food scraps to keep the area tidy. Ensure your workspace is well-lit and free of unnecessary items to maximize space. If your recipe requires it, preheat the oven or pans while organizing your space. Having a clean and organized workspace makes the cooking process more efficient and enjoyable.
Preparing your ingredients in advance
Prepping ingredients, or "mise en place," involves getting everything ready before cooking. This includes washing and chopping vegetables, measuring out ingredients, and preparing items like garlic, onions, or meat as required by the recipe. You might also marinate, soften, or melt ingredients if needed. Once prepped, arrange everything in small bowls or containers for easy access during cooking. This preparation helps streamline the cooking process and ensures you can focus on cooking without interruptions.
