Ingredients

1 cup chopped cooked chicken
1 1/2 cups thinly sliced napa cabbage
1/4 cup shredded carrots
3 green onions, chopped
12 fresh green beans, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
1 small green bell pepper, cut into thin strips
1 small zucchini, cut into thin strips
3 large eggs, lightly beaten
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup chicken stock
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
1/4 teaspoon toasted sesame oil

Directions

1 In a large bowl, mix chicken, cabbage, carrots, green onions, green beans, green bell pepper, and zucchini. In a separate bowl, beat together eggs, flour, chicken stock, and soy sauce. Pour batter over chicken mixture and toss to thoroughly coat.
2 Mix vegetable oil and sesame oil in a skillet over medium heat. Scoop about 1/4 cup batter into skillet, enough to make a 2 1/2 inch circle. Cover and cook 4 minutes, or until the bottom is golden brown. Flip and continue cooking 4 minutes, or until cooked through. Drain on paper towels.
