Instructions
Creating the perfect Spicy Ginger Chicken Delight is simple when you follow these easy steps:
1. Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, mix ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, brown sugar, and chili paste. Add chicken strips, ensuring they are well coated. Let marinate for at least 10 minutes.
2. Prepare Vegetables: While the chicken marinates, slice the bell pepper and onion. Set aside.
3. Heat the Pan: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add a tablespoon of oil. Once hot, add the marinated chicken and cook for 5-7 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
4. Add Vegetables: Stir in the sliced bell pepper and onion. Cook for an additional 3-5 minutes, until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
5. Season: Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper if needed. Cook for another minute to meld the flavors.
6. Serve: Transfer the chicken and vegetable mixture to a serving platter, garnishing with chopped green onions.
7. Pair: Serve over a bed of cooked rice or toss it with noodles, allowing the sauce to soak into the grains or strands for an extra flavor punch.
