Gado gado stir-fry
Gado gado is a traditional Indonesian salad combining cabbage, a variety of vegetables, and eggs and served with peanut sauce. We took this "salad" to the pan for a quick stir-fry and added shredded chicken and a crispy fried egg for protein, creating a delightfully filling meal. Gado gado means "mix mix," so let's whip out that pan and get stirring!

Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine the peanut butter, sriracha, and lime juice. If it's too thick for your liking, add one teaspoon of water at a time to thin it out. Set aside until ready to serve.
- Thinly slice the pointed cabbage, grate the carrots, trim and slice the sugar snap peas, and chop the red onion.
- In a large wok or frying pan, melt the coconut oil over medium heat. Add the red onion and stir until translucent. Turn up the heat to medium-high and add the cabbage, carrots, sugar snap peas, and bean sprouts to the pan. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the veggies start to wilt. Add the shredded chicken.
- In a small bowl, combine the tamari soy sauce and sambal oelek (if using) and add it to the pan. Stir until the chicken is warmed through and everything is combined.
- In a separate frying pan over medium-high heat, melt the butter and fry one egg per serving.
- Divide the stir-fry between plates, drizzle with peanut dressing, and top each serving with a fried egg and sliced scallions.
