STEPS

1

Gather Ingredients.

2

For Chicken Coating, whisk together cornstarch, soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, and pepper in a large bowl. Mixture will be quite thick. Add chicken pieces to bowl and stir to coat chicken. Let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes.

3

Meanwhile, for Black Pepper Sauce, whisk together chicken broth, oyster sauce, wine, soy sauce, water, cornstarch, and pepper in a medium bowl.

4

Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add half the chicken. Cook and stir until lightly browned and no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Transfer chicken to a plate; set aside. Repeat with remaining chicken. Remove chicken from skillet.

5

Add remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil to skillet. Stir in minced garlic and ginger. Cook and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in bell pepper and onion. Cook and stir until crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes.

6

Pour in Black Pepper Sauce and cook until sauce has thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Return cooked chicken to skillet. Cook and stir until all ingredients are coated with sauce. Serve immediately over cooked white rice.
