Step 1

Toss chicken with sesame oil, sesame seeds, 1 teaspoon salt, and soy sauce; set aside. Heat vegetable oil in wok or large skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add kimchi and heat until hot. Add chicken and cook until almost cooked through, about 2 to 3 minutes.

Step 2

Add cabbage and cook until cabbage is just beginning to wilt, about 1 more minute. Season to taste with chili sauce and fish sauce. Serve immediately with rice (see note).
