Bite size chicken with a serrano pepper, red and yellow bell peppers and covered in a sweet gingery sauce!
This recipe is quick and super tasty. It is one of my favorite weeknight meals that my family always looks forward to eating. I like to use chicken breast, but you can do thighs as well. The chicken is seasoned with salt, pepper, and a quick toss of corn starch. This will give a little coating to help crunch it up and grab the sauce.
The sauce is DELICIOUS. It is made of soy, ginger paste, oyster sauce, honey, sweet chili sauce, apple cider vinegar, and sesame oil. Whisk and pour on the sauteed chicken and vegetables. YUM! 
I like to garnish with green onions and sesame seeds, serve with jasmine rice.
Okay let’s get started!
