Lightened Chicken Egg Foo Young
  1. 1

    Coat a skillet with cooking spray and set it over medium heat. Cook and stir the chicken until lightly browned and no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Use a spatula to spread the chicken pieces evenly across the bottom of the skillet. Spray again with cooking spray if needed.

  2. 2

    In a bowl, beat the egg whites with soy sauce, then stir in the bean sprouts, water chestnuts, and green onion.

  3. 3

    Pour the egg mixture into the skillet over the chicken, and cook until the bottom is lightly golden and the top is nearly set, about 3 minutes.

  4. 4

    Flip the egg pancake and cook the other side until lightly golden and set, another minute or two.
