Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of olive oil, oyster sauce, garlic and ginger paste, soy sauces, rice wine vinegar, salt, and pepper. Separate half of this mixture into a smaller bowl and dilute it with water. Set aside.
  2. Submerge the chicken strips in the remaining marinade in a large bowl. Ensure every piece is coated evenly and let it rest for approximately 10 minutes.
  3. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Introduce the marinated chicken pieces to the skillet and sauté until they are cooked through and have obtained a slight browning. Once done, remove the chicken from the skillet and reserve it for later.
  4. In the same skillet, sauté the onions until they become translucent. If necessary, add more oil. Next, incorporate the sliced bell peppers and trimmed snow peas, along with the reserved marinade from the small bowl. Stir frequently and cook until the sauce begins to thicken.
  5. Reintroduce the cooked chicken to the skillet and thoroughly mix it with the vegetables and sauce.
  6. Dish out the chicken over a bed of rice and garnish with basil for a final touch.

Notes

  • Nutritional information does not include rice.
  • Marinating Time: While 10 minutes is the minimum, you can marinate the chicken up to overnight for more intense flavor.
  • Vegetable Variations: Feel free to swap in your favorite veggies, such as broccoli or snap peas.
  • Protein Substitution: Try this recipe with shrimp or tofu for a change!
  • Serving Suggestion: This dish is perfect over jasmine or basmati rice, and even better the next day as leftovers!
