Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Chicken

Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. Marinate with soy sauce, sesame oil, and cornstarch for 15 minutes.

2

Chop the Vegetables

Dice the bell pepper and zucchini. Chop the green onions and mince the garlic and ginger.

3

Stir-Fry the Chicken

Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and stir-fry until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.

4

Cook the Vegetables

In the same pan, add garlic, ginger, bell pepper, and zucchini. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.

5

Combine and Sauce

Return the chicken to the pan. Add the peanuts, rice vinegar, and chili paste. Stir everything together and cook for another 2-3 minutes until well combined.

6

Garnish and Serve

Garnish with chopped green onions and serve hot with steamed rice.
