  • 3 nos Chicken breast
  • 1/2 large Onion sliced

Instructions
 

  • Soak blackbeans in rice wine to puff them up!
  • Velvet the chicken by marinating in soy sauce, corn flour, rice wine, pepper, egg whites and just before cooking, marinate at least 30 minutes, add in 2 tablespoon of oil to separate the chicken then fry in pan with no oil. Remove chicken after they changed colour and 80% cooked.
  • In a clean wok add a bit of oil - fry in order, garlic, ginger, onions, blackbeans (keep the marinate for later), chillies, bell peppers, give a good stir, add back in the chicken pieces and 1/2 glass of water.
  • You may like to thicken the sauce with a bit of corn starch slurry.
  • Bring to boil and serve - please do not overcook the veggies.
