Total Time: 35 mins Preparation Time: 10 mins Cook Time: 25 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 3
• 6 chicken breasts, skinless, deboned
• 1/2 cup flour, for dredging
• salt and coarse black pepper
• oil (for frying)
• 1 red bell pepper, deseeded and sliced into thin strips
• 1 yellow bell pepper, deseeded and sliced into thin strips (you can use green too)
• 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
• 2 garlic cloves, peeled and chopped
• 4 spring onions, sliced up
• 4 tablespoons thai sweet chili sauce (a good brand)

Recipe

• 1 flatten the breasts gently with a meat mallet. dredge lightly in the flour, and cut into strips.
• 2 heat a good layer of oil in a pan. fry the strips, stirring, until done. use quite a high heat: they will cook quickly. drain on kitchen paper, and keep warm.
• 3 fry the sweet pepper strips in the same pan, stirring. you might have to add more oil. fry briefly, so that they are still crisp.
• 4 then add the ginger, garlic and spring onion, and stir through for a minute or so.
• 5 remove from heat, and stir in the thai sweet chilli sauce.
• 6 put the chicken strips in a serving bowl, and spoon over the peppers and sauce.
• 7 nice-looking if served on top of a mound of jasmine rice, or -- healthier -- brown basmati. nice sides are al dente thin baby green beans and a crisp salad.
