Step by step!
- 320 g chicken breast
- 200 g bell peppers
- 2 tsp minced garlic
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 egg white
- 1/2 cup tapioca powder or you can use cornstarch
- Oil for frying
- 2 1/2 tsp brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp chili flakes
- 1/2 tbsp fish sauce
- 1 1/2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp oyster sauce
- 1 tbsp ketchup
- 1 tbsp sriracha or chili hot sauce
- 1 tsp rice vinegar
- 1 tsp cornstarch
- 1 tsp cayenne pepper or any chili powder
- 4 tbsp water
Place chicken strips into a mixing bowl, add garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper and salt. Mix well and let it sit for 20 minutes
Add flour with egg white and combine.
Heat a wok/ shallow pan and add oil to deep fry the chicken strips. Fry over medium heat until golden then transfer to a plate to let it cool down.
I recommend to fry the 2nd time until crispy golden brown. Put the chicken aside.
Prepare the cooking sauce by combining all the ingredients from the list.
Heat a frying pan over medium heat, add 1 tbsp cooking oil with minced garlic and wait until fragrant. Add in bell peppers and stir for 30-45 seconds before adding the sauce.
Bring the sauce to a boil and mix along with bell peppers for less than a minute.
Add the fried chicken and toss well for a minute, less or more until the sauce is thickened to your liking. Remove from heat and ready to serve.
I love to serve this over steamed rice, so good!
