Cooking time: 15 mins

Serving: 6

Ingredients:

Marinade:

• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon water
• 1 1/2 teaspoons light soy sauce
• 1 ½ teaspoons white sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, sliced
• 1 cup bean sprouts

Sauce:

• 1/4 cup water
• 2 teaspoons oyster sauce
• 1 teaspoon white sugar
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 3 tablespoons black bean sauce with garlic
• 1 tablespoon chopped garlic
• 1 onion, finely sliced
• ½ green bell pepper, chopped
• 2 teaspoons cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon water

 Instructions:

1. To make the marinade: Mix 1 tablespoon cornstarch with 1 tablespoon water in a bowl; stir in light soy sauce, sugar, and salt. Add chicken; toss to combine. Set aside to marinate for 20 minutes.
2. Bring water to a boil in a saucepan. Add bean sprouts; cook just until blanched, about 30 seconds; drain and set aside.
3. Combine 1/4 cup water, oyster sauce, and sugar together in a small bowl; set aside.
4. Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over high heat. Add black bean sauce and chopped garlic; cook and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add onion; cook and stir until soft, 3 to 4 minutes.
5. Add chicken and marinade mixture; stir-fry until cooked through and no longer pink in the middle, about 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in oyster sauce mixture; cook until heated through. Cover and simmer until flavors blend, about 1 or 2 minutes. Stir in bell pepper; cover and cook until softened, 1 to 2 minutes more.
6. Dissolve 2 teaspoons cornstarch in 1 tablespoon water. Stir in bean sprouts and cornstarch mixture; cook until sauce is thickened, 2 to 3 minutes more.
