Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Preparation of Chicken

    Cut the chicken breast into thin strips. Marinate with soy sauce, ground black pepper, and a pinch of salt for at least 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Sautéing Vegetables

    In a large skillet or wok, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic and sliced onions, and sauté until fragrant.

  3. 3

    Cooking Chicken

    Add the marinated chicken to the skillet and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.

  4. 4

    Adding Peppers

    Stir in the sliced bell peppers and continue to cook for another 3-4 minutes until the peppers are tender but still crisp.

  5. 5

    Thickening the Sauce

    In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with water until smooth. Pour this mixture into the skillet and stir well to combine. Cook for another 2 minutes until the sauce thickens.

  6. 6

    Serving

    Serve the hot pepper chicken on a hot plate, garnished with additional black pepper if desired.
