Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Protein
  • 1 lb chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces about 500 g
Sauce & Marinade
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons chili sauce (Sriracha or store-bought red chili sauce)
  • 1 tablespoon ginger-garlic paste
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • Salt to taste
Vegetables
  • 1 medium onion, sliced
  • 2–3 pieces green chilies, slit adjust to taste
Frying & Garnish
  • 2 tablespoons oil for frying
  • Spring onions, sliced for garnish

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a bowl, marinate the chicken pieces with soy sauce, chili sauce, ginger-garlic paste, cornstarch, and salt. Let it sit for 15–20 minutes.
  2. Heat oil in a pan or wok over medium heat until shimmering.
Cooking
  1. Add the marinated chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through, about 6–8 minutes.
  2. Push the chicken to the side, add sliced onion, bell pepper, and green chilies; stir-fry for 3–4 minutes until vegetables are slightly tender but still crisp.
  3. Toss everything together and adjust seasoning if necessary; cook 1 more minute to blend flavors.
  4. Remove from heat, garnish with spring onions, and serve hot with steamed rice or noodles.

Notes

For best results, pat chicken dry before marinating and use a hot wok or skillet to prevent steaming. Customize the level of heat by adjusting chilies and Sriracha.
