Cabbage and Chicken Breast Steamed in the Microwave

I came up with this recipe because I wanted to see if I could create a juicy texture with cheap and healthy chicken breast.
The seasonings are simple, but the umami flavour of the lettuce really stands out, and makes this dish irresistible.
Adjust the cooking time to your microwave and the size of the chicken pieces. Check the chicken after 10 minutes, and microwave again if necessary. It's done when the chicken is cooked through. Recipe by Honmatomomitokachi

Sorry for the disappointingly short recipe. I just mixed the flavouring ingredients and it turned out to be surprisingly delicious.The chicken becomes moist from the oil, and soft when it's sliced thinly. When you are using bigger cuts of chicken, microwave for 4 - 6 minutes instead. Leave it with plastic wrap for a while so that the flavour will get absorbed, and the chicken will taste delicious.
