- 2 spring onions

Instructions
- Place the chicken in a bag, add one tablespoon of corn flour, a quarter of a teaspoon of salt and the ground pepper and seal the bag.

- Peel and grate the garlic cloves and ginger, chop the spring onions and add them to a wok together with half a teaspoon of oil.
- Stir for 30 seconds, then add peppers and onion chopped roughly.
- Stir well for about 5 minutes, so that the vegetables can soften. A high heat is recommended when stir frying.
