Chinese chicken

Cookinero 25 Apr 2025

If you've been wanting to try cooking Asian cuisine for a long time but didn't know where to start, this recipe is just what you need. Soy sauce is a classic ingredient in almost all Chinese dishes. In Asia, it is added as much and as often as possible. Chicken breast is a storehouse of protein and the basis of any healthy diet. When combined with bell pepper, soy sauce and sugar, it becomes incredibly sweet and piquant.
