Step 1

Dice chicken thighs into 1.5-inch cubes and transfer to a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Marinate diced chicken with the marinade ingredients as listed above for 15-30 minutes at most. Do not over marinate.

Step 3

In a small bowl or cup, combine the sauce ingredients as listed above until sugar has dissolved and set aside.

Step 4

Heat vegetable oil in a large pan on medium-high heat. Fry marinated chicken until cooked and golden, about 5-6 minutes in total. Remove the chicken and leave the residual oil in the pan for the next step.

Step 5

Stir-fry dried red chilis, green onions and peanuts for 15 seconds. Toss in red bell peppers and stir-fry for 30 seconds.

Toss in cooked chicken, followed by the sauce. Stir fry for 30 seconds until chicken is evenly coated in sauce. Serve and enjoy!
