Stir-fry Frog Legs with Ginger and Spring Onion 姜葱田鸡

I bought some frogs from the supermarket. They were already skinned and killed. I wouldn't dare to kill a jumping and croaking frog otherwise. I tried to search for a recipe for Stir-fry Frog Legs with Ginger and Spring Onion 姜葱田鸡 but can't find one. So I experimented and according to Jerome, it was great :) I think frog legs is very healthy, a healthier alternative to chicken's meat. Here's my recipe.
