Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
- 1 bell pepper, sliced (any color)
- 1 small onion, sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced
- 1 tablespoon black pepper (adjust to taste)
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon sugar

Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine the chicken pieces with soy sauce and cornstarch. Mix well and let it marinate for about 15 minutes.
- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the sliced mushrooms, bell pepper, and onion. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
- Add the minced garlic and ginger to the skillet, cooking for an additional minute until fragrant.
- Return the chicken to the skillet and add black pepper, oyster sauce, rice vinegar, and sugar. Stir well to combine and cook for another 2-3 minutes to heat through. Season with salt to taste.
- Serve hot, garnished with chopped green onions over steamed rice or noodles.
Notes
- For a spicier dish, add sliced jalapeños or a dash of chili flakes.
- Substitute chicken with tofu or shrimp for a different protein option.
