Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, wine, cornstarch, ginger, and garlic.
- Stir in the chicken and let it stand at room temperature for 10 minutes.

- Return the chicken to the wok along with the reserved marinade and stir-fry until heated through and the sauce is thickened, 2-3 minutes; taste and add salt/pepper or red pepper flakes, if needed.
- Sprinkle with the green onions.
