Colorful Chicken Breast

Colorful Chicken Breast

This vibrant **Stir-Fried Chicken with Red Bell Pepper and Green Beans** is a delicious, nutrient-packed dish that’s as visually stunning as it is flavorful. Tender chicken breast, marinated in oyster sauce and cooking wine, is stir-fried to perfection with crisp green beans, earthy mushrooms, and sweet red bell peppers. The secret? A V-cut pepper serves as a charming edible bowl, adding a playful touch. Blanched green beans retain their crunch, while the chicken is cooked at a lower temperature to lock in moisture and nutrients. A hint of ginger and fragrant oil elevates the dish with aromatic depth. Quick, healthy, and bursting with color and texture, this stir-fry is perfect for a weeknight dinner or an impressive meal for guests. Enjoy the harmony of savory, sweet, and umami flavors in every bite!
