Chicken and Peppers with Black Bean and Garlic Sauce

Ingredients: 

• 1/2 lb Chicken thighs- cubed
• 2 Bell Peppers- cubed 
• 2-3 TBSP Black Bean Garlic Sauce (I used Lee Kum Kee brand)
• 1 TBSP Chinese Rice Wine 
• 1 tspn soy sauce
• 1 tspn sugar 
• Ginger- 2-3 1/4inch thick coin size pieces
• 1 TBSP Olive Oil 
• Cilantro for garnish
• Sesame oil (optional)

Directions:

• In a pan, put a tablespoon of olive oil and heat on medium high heat. 
• Once oil is hot put in the ginger and chicken pieces. Sautee for a few minutes until the chicken is lightly browned. 
• Next add Chinese wine and sautée.
• Also add the Black bean garlic sauce, soy sauce, sugar and cook over medium heat for 8-10 minutes or until chicken is thoroughly cooked.
• Now add the bell peppers and continue to stir and cook for additional 2-3 minutes. You can add the peppers earlier for softer texture. To keep a crunchy texture, add the peppers in later! 
• I added some sesame oil at the end and mixed everything well for some extra flavor.
• Garnish with cilantro or green onion and serve with rice!!
