Ingredients
– 1.5 pounds chicken tenderloins, cut into strips
– 1 green bell pepper, sliced thick
– 1/2 onion, minced thickly
– 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 tablespoon soy sauce
– 1 tablespoon cornstarch
– 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Instructions
1. In a bowl, combine chicken tenderloins with soy sauce and cornstarch. Mix well to ensure the chicken is fully coated. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
2. Heat vegetable oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken tenderloins and stir-fry until they are golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.
3. In the same pan, add the thick slices of green bell pepper and minced onion. Saut until they become tender and start browning, approximately 3-4 minutes.
4. Sprinkle garlic powder over the vegetables, stirring well to mix the flavors.
5. Return the cooked chicken to the pan, tossing everything together to combine. Cook for another 2 minutes to ensure all ingredients are heated through and coated with the savory sauce.
6. Serve hot over steamed rice or your choice of noodles for a delightful meal.
