Black Pepper Chicken

October 2, 2018 by bakebrewandstew 21 Comments

Can I just say this is the best thing I have ever cooked! YES, its by far my favorite recipe on the blog and pretty much meets all my standards – its spicy, crispy packed with umami flavor, made with clean ingredients, and healthy food can also taste absolutely phenomenal!

So to cut the chase I’m going to get straight to the step by step recipe – marinate chicken breast cubes with coconut aminos (or soy sauce), toasted sesame oil, fresh garlic, arrowroot powder and a pinch of salt. 

I typically marinate the chicken for 30 minutes or so but you can marinate and refrigerate it overnight. 

While the chicken is marinating, cut a red onion and red pepper into cubes. I uses freshly ground black peppercorns in this recipe but you can opt for store bought ground black pepper.

Heat oil in a skillet and add the marinated chicken cubes, make sure they are evenly spread on the pan. Cook on medium flame for about ten minutes on each side until the chicken turns brown and is completely cooked.

I just couldn’t get myself to stop eating these chicken bites as soon as I removed them from the pan, they are so crispy and have a very garlicky flavor.

After you removed the chicken, in the same pan first add the onions and fry for like 2-3 minutes. Then add the red peppers, chicken and ground black pepper. Mix well and add coconut aminos, a little bit of water and arrowroot slurry…just enough to make the chicken sticky.

And this is what the pepper chicken looks like, I added extra black pepper to make it spicy and I almost ate half the pan as in! This goes so well with fried rice or lo mein and super easy to make with minimal prep work.

    Hmm it looks like your website ate my first comment (it was extremely long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I had written and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog. I too am an aspiring blog writer but I’m still new to everything. Do you have any tips for inexperienced blog writers? I’d genuinely appreciate it.|

    First of all I want to say fantastic blog! I had a quick question that I’d like to ask if you do not mind. I was curious to find out how you center yourself and clear your mind prior to writing. I have had a difficult time clearing my mind in getting my ideas out there. I do take pleasure in writing however it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are usually wasted simply just trying to figure out how to begin. Any suggestions or hints? Kudos!|
