After the juicy fatty portions were consumed the breast got left behind. Not to worry, 2 recipes Sailu's Capsicum Chicken and Soma's Mushroom Pepper Fry have been tempting me and also gave ideas for using the bell pepper ready for picking in the garden.
Since the chicken was already cooked putting this dish together was a breeze. If you are using raw chicken, cut the chicken to cubes and marinate them in a bit of corn starch, chili powder and salt. Heat a wok with oil and cook the chicken first and set it aside before proceeding with the recipe.
Chicken fry with bell pepper
1. 1 1/2 cups worth of cooked chicken cut in cubes
2. 2 cups bell pepper diced
3. 1/2 cup onion cut lengthwise
4. 1 tbsp tomato, chili garlic sauce (Maggi brand)
5. 1 tbsp chili sauce
6. 2 tsp oil
7. 4 garlic cloves sliced
8. 2 tsp grated ginger
Method
1. In a wok heat the oil and saute the onions till translucent, add the bell peppers and let them cook till soft.
2. Add the garlic and ginger and saute for a minute or two
3. Add the chicken cubes and let them saute for 2-3 minutes
4. Add the sauces and mix well. Saute till the sauces coat the chicken pieces well.
Serve with rice or even chapatis.
Thanks for the idea and the link, this will be my next. Already picked 1bout 8 bell peppers yesterday. The cooked chicken is a good idea.
