  1. Heat 1 teaspoon oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook, stirring once or twice until no longer pink in the middle (2 minutes). Transfer chicken to a plate.
  2. Add the remaining 2 teaspoons oil to the pan and heat over medium-low heat. Add carrot, garlic, coriander, salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant (1 minute).
