Instructions
- Slice chicken and then marinating with soy sauce, cooking wine and water starch. Set aside for around 15 minutes.
- Heat your cook firstly, then around 2 tablespoons of cooking oil in a non-stick pan or wok. Place chicken in when the oil is warm but not hot. Let the chicken stay for 3-5 seconds and gently stir fry the chicken until the the chicken slices turns pale. Transfer out.
- Leave some oil in and fry garlic until aromatic. Place sha cha sauce in and add water. Bring everything to a boiling and then place chicken, chili peppers and red onion. Simmer for 1 minute and serve with steamed rice.
Notes
- I love the chicken to be a little bit spicy. So you can spare red pepper or chose round red pepper.
- Crystal sugar added at end is for the color. This step is optional.
- Since Sha cha sauce contains some amount of salt, so do spare the salt added additionally.
