Steps

  1. Season the boneless chicken with garlic powder, black pepper, smoked paprika, onion powder, chicken seasoning, salt, and corn flour. Mix thoroughly.
  2. Cover the marinated chicken with cling film and leave it to marinate for about 30 minutes (or longer if preferred).
  3. Combine dark soy sauce, light soy sauce, oyster sauce, Chinese cooking wine, tomato ketchup (or tomato paste), sweet chili sauce (or honey), chicken bouillon cubes, cornflour, and sesame oil in a bowl to create the slurry.
  4. Heat a pan on medium heat and add vegetable oil. Add the marinated chicken and fry until it is fully cooked and brown on all sides (this should take about 6-7 minutes).
  5. Transfer the fried chicken into a bowl.
  6. Return the pan to the heat with any residual oil, adding more if necessary.
  7. Add minced ginger and garlic to the pan and fry for about two minutes, ensuring they do not burn.
  8. Add chopped onions to the pan and fry for another two minutes.
  9. Increase the heat to high. Add chili and chopped bell peppers to the pan and fry for 2-3 minutes until crisp.
  10. Pour the slurry into the pan and mix thoroughly. Let it cook for about two to three minutes.
  11. Add the cooked chicken and spring onions back into the pan, combining everything thoroughly.
  12. Simmer on low heat for about one minute.
