Prepare Chicken
Pat chicken thigh cubes dry, season lightly with salt and pepper, toss with cornstarch, then drizzle with avocado oil and set aside.

Heat Wok and Cook Chicken
Heat the wok over high heat until smoking, add a splash of avocado oil, then add the chicken in a single layer. Let it sear undisturbed for 2 minutes, then stir‑fry until just cooked through, about 3 more minutes. Transfer to a plate.
Time: PT5M

Add Korean BBQ Sauce
Return the wok to the heat, pour in the Korean barbecue sauce, stir quickly to coat the pan, then set the sauce aside for later addition.
Time: PT1M

Sauté Aromatics
Add a little more oil if needed, then add diced onion, white parts of green onions, minced garlic and ginger. Stir‑fry until fragrant and the onion becomes translucent, about 2 minutes.

Scramble Eggs
Push the aromatics to the side of the wok, add the beaten eggs and scramble quickly until just set. Remove and set aside with the chicken.
