Ingredients

  • about 680 g Chicken Thighs
  • 2 stalks Lemongrass
  • 3 cloves Garlic
  • 2.54 cm Ginger
  • 1 each Red Bell Pepper
  • 1 each Green Bell Pepper
  • 1/2 each Onion
  • 2 tablespoons Soy Sauce (Gluten-Free)
  • 1 tablespoon Fish Sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Sugar
  • 2 tablespoons Vegetable Oil
  • 4 cups Cooked Rice

Original measure retained: its cup/spoon or fluid-volume standard is unspecified.

Instructions

  1. 1Prepare your ingredients: Slice the about 680 g Chicken Thighs into thin strips. Finely mince the 2 stalks Lemongrass, 3 cloves Garlic, and 2.54 cm Ginger. Slice the 1 each Red Bell Pepper, 1 each Green Bell Pepper, and 1/2 each Onion into strips.
  2. 2Make the marinade: In a bowl, combine the sliced chicken thighs with the minced lemongrass, minced garlic, minced ginger, 2 tablespoons Gluten-Free Soy Sauce, 1 tablespoon Fish Sauce, and 1 teaspoon Sugar. Mix everything together thoroughly and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
  3. 3Heat your pan: Place a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add the 2 tablespoons Vegetable Oil. Heat the oil until it shimmers, which should take about 1-2 minutes.
  4. 4Cook the chicken: Add the marinated chicken to the hot skillet. Stir-fry for 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and has reached an internal temperature of 74°C.
  5. 5Add the vegetables: Add the sliced red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and onion to the skillet with the chicken. Continue to stir-fry for another 3-5 minutes, until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
  6. 6Serve: Divide the 4 cups Cooked Rice among serving plates. Spoon the chicken and vegetable stir-fry over the rice.
