Sure! Here’s a recipe for Black Pepper Chicken:
Ingredients
- 1 lb (450g) chicken breast or thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp oyster sauce
- 1 tbsp fish sauce
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 onion, sliced
- 1 bell pepper (any color), sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1-inch piece of ginger, minced
- 2 green onions, chopped
- 1 tbsp freshly ground black pepper (adjust to taste)
- 1/2 cup chicken broth or water
Instructions
- Marinate the Chicken:
- In a bowl, combine the chicken pieces with soy sauce, oyster sauce, fish sauce, cornstarch, sugar, and ground black pepper. Mix well and let it marinate for at least 15-20 minutes.
- Prepare the Vegetables:
- While the chicken is marinating, slice the onion, bell pepper, and green onions. Mince the garlic and ginger.
- Cook the Chicken:
- Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken to the skillet and cook until the chicken is browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- Stir-Fry the Vegetables:
- In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the sliced onion, bell pepper, minced garlic, and ginger. Stir-fry for about 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are slightly tender.
- Combine Everything:
- Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the vegetables. Add the chopped green onions and freshly ground black pepper. Stir well to combine.
- Pour in the chicken broth or water and stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and coat the chicken and vegetables evenly.
- Serve:
- Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve the Black Pepper Chicken hot with steamed rice or noodles.
