Substitutions
Vegetables- Onions and bell peppers are my go-to but you can also use zucchini, carrots, bok choy stems, and mushrooms. I do not recommend broccoli or cauliflower in this recipe.Corn Starch- Substitute with tapioca starch or arrowroot powder Chicken- Use paneer or tofu instead
Instructions
Cut and Marinate the chicken by cutting it into small chunks or thin slices. Add a pinch of baking soda, toasted sesame seed oil, and soy sauce. Then set it aside while you prep the other ingredients. Cook the chicken in a wide pan or wok on high heat with a generous amount of oil until golden brown. Be sure not to over crowd the pan. I recommend working in small batches and place the cooked chicken in a covered bowl until all of the chicken has been cooked. Add peppers and onions to the wok and cook until slightly translucent (a quick few seconds) Add the additional ingredients such as curry powder, ginger, and garlic. Combine it well until heated through. Serve it with white rice and a side of greens.
