Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Slice 300g chicken breast into 1/2-inch thick strips, then toss with 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, 1 tbsp grated ginger, and 2 minced garlic cloves. Let marinate for 15 minutes while preparing other ingredients.
  2. Step 2: In a small bowl, mix 2 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp cornstarch, and 2 tbsp water to create a slurry. Set aside.
  3. Step 3: Heat 2 tbsp neutral oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat until shimmering. Add marinated chicken and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until golden and cooked through, then transfer to a plate.
  4. Step 4: Add bell peppers and snap peas to the hot wok, stir-frying for 2 minutes until crisp-tender. Return chicken to the wok, pour in the slurry, and toss for 1 minute until sauce thickens and coats everything evenly.
  5. Step 5: Transfer to a serving plate, sprinkle with 1 tsp sesame seeds, and serve immediately.
