- Toss the chicken strips with 1 teaspoon black pepper and the 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Heat the neutral oil and sesame oil in a wok or large frying pan over high heat until hot, then add the chicken.
- Fry the chicken for 5 minutes, moving it around so the strips don't stick together, until lightly browned.
- Lower the heat to medium-high. Add the onion, peppers, garlic and ginger and fry for 3-4 minutes, tossing often, until the vegetables are just starting to soften.
- In a small bowl, stir together the cornflour, dark soy sauce, oyster sauce and rice wine until the cornflour is fully mixed in.
- Add the chicken stock and the remaining 1 teaspoon black pepper to the bowl and stir to combine.
- Pour the sauce into the wok and stir. Heat for 1-2 minutes until it gently simmers. If too thick, add a splash of water. Turn off the heat.
- Serve with boiled rice and chopped spring onions.
