Ingredients

• 500 grams boneless skinless chicken thighs
• 3 tablespoons cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 4 cloves garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
• 3 whole red chilies, thinly sliced
• 1 large red bell pepper, sliced
• 1 large green bell pepper, sliced
• 1 medium yellow onion, sliced
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
• 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
• 2 tablespoons chili garlic sauce
• 4 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 2 stalks green onions, sliced
• 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
• 4 cups cooked white rice

Directions

Step 1

Cut the chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces and toss them with 2 tablespoons of soy sauce in a bowl. Let marinate for 10 minutes.

Step 2

Sprinkle the marinated chicken with cornstarch and toss to coat evenly.

Step 3

Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 6-8 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Remove the chicken and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil. Stir in the minced garlic, grated ginger, and sliced red chilies, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 5

Add the sliced red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and onion to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until slightly softened but still crisp.

Step 6

In a small bowl, whisk together the sugar, rice vinegar, hoisin sauce, chili garlic sauce, and 1 tablespoon of water. Pour the sauce mixture into the skillet and bring to a simmer.

Step 7

Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and toss to coat in the sauce. Stir-fry everything together for an additional 2-3 minutes until heated through.

Step 8

Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.

Step 9

Serve immediately over cooked white rice.
