Instructions

1. Cut the chicken breast into thin strips. Season it with 1/3 tsp salt, 1/2 tbsp cornstarch, 1 tbsp Chinese cooking wine, the minced garlic and the ginger. Set aside.
2. In a sauce bowl, mix 1.5 tbsp soy sauce, 1.5 tbsp oyster sauce, 2 tsp dark soy sauce, 2 tsp Chinese black vinegar, 1/2 tsp white pepper, 1 tsp sugar, 2 tsp cornstarch and 1/2 cup stock or water.
3. Slice the green and red chili peppers.
4. Heat a wok over high heat until smoking hot. Add the oil and swirl to coat the bottom.
5. Add the marinated chicken in a single layer and let it sear on one side, then stir for a couple of minutes until it changes color.
6. Push the chicken to the side, add the chili and cover them with the chicken for about a minute so they cook faster.
7. Keep stirring until the chicken reaches your desired doneness.
8. Pour in the sauce and stir until it thickens.
