    List of Ingredients




    3 tablespoons soy sauce
    1 tablespoon (peeled and grated ) fresh ginger
    1 teaspoon sugar
    1 teaspoon cornstarch
    1/2 teaspoon (crushed) red pepper
    2 cloves garlic, minced
    1/2 cup water
    1 pound (boneless, skinless) chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch chunks
    3 teaspoons vegetable oil
    1 large onion, cut into thin strips
    2 small green bell peppers, cut into thin strips
    2/3 cup (unsalted) roasted peanuts, produce

    Recipe



    In a small bowl, with a fork, combine soy sauce, ginger, sugar, cornstarch, crushed red pepper, garlic and water. Transfer 2 Tbsp. of the sauce to a medium bowl; add chicken and toss to coat. Marinate at room temperature for 10 minutes.

    In a nonstick 12-inch skillet, warm 2 tsp. oil over medium-high heat until very hot. Add the chicken and cook until meat loses its pink color throughout, about 5 minutes. Remove to a plate.

    Add remaining 1 tsp. oil to the same skillet and heat until hot. Add onion and bell peppers, and stir-fry about 5 minutes. (Add 1 to 2 Tbsp. water if skillet is dry.)

    Pour remaining stir-fry sauce over vegetables and boil 1 minute. Return chicken to skillet along with peanuts and heat through. Serve over rice, if you like.
