Cut the chicken into one inch bites, and marinade with 2 tablespoons of the soy sauce, ½ tablespoon of the chili vinegar, cornstarch and the ground ginger for 30 minutes.
Using two tablespoons of canola oil, heat a wok on high.
When oil is hot and ripples as you move the pan, add the chicken.
Cook on high heat until browned.
Remove from the pan and add in the celery and onions with the remaining two tablespoons of canola oil.
Cook the veggies on high for 30-45 seconds.

Cook for 15 seconds to combine everything and serve immediately.
