Instructions

  1. Cut the chicken breasts into thin strips. Cut the spring onions into rings and the red peppers into bite-sized pieces.
  2. Place the chicken strips in a ziplock bag or bowl, coat lightly with some sesame oil, and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours.
  3. Heat the remaining sesame oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the red pepper pieces and fry for 2-3 minutes until they start to soften. Remove and set aside.
  4. Add the drained chicken strips to the pan and fry over medium-high heat for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until cooked through (internal temperature 74°C / 165°F).

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
