In a small bowl combine 1 tsp sesame oil, 3 tbsp soy sauce, 4 tsp white vinegar, remaining garlic, ginger and chilli flakes.
Heat 1 tsp oil in frypan over high heat. Stir fry the onion, carrot, broccoli and bok choy stems for 1-2min before adding ginger mixture and continue to stir fry for another 3min. In the final minute add chicken and bok choy leaves and and cook until bok choy leaves are just wilted.
