Me and my partner used to go out every week for Chinese food, we enjoy it that much.
However now a days, I like to make these type of dishes at home.
It not only saves us a ton of money it is also much healthier. Since you can add more vegetables and different kinds to suit your individual taste.
This combination is my favorite, however I do sometimes like to add bok choy and snap peas too.
HOW TO MAKE BLACK PEPPER CHICKEN
You will want to start by making the rice “I like to use my rice cooker”
Then make the sauce, then set aside
Then you will want to chop all your vegetables then set aside
Same with the chicken
In a frying pan/work add 1 cup of water then all the vegetables, broccoli first and stir fry over medium heat for roughly 3 minutes till the vegetables are tender yet crisp. Remove the veggies strain and set aside!
Then in the same frying pan/work add 1 tbsp of sesame oil and cook the diced chicken over medium heat till no longer pink. Then add in the sliced onion and saute one more minute before adding in the sauce.
Mix everything together then add in the steamed veggies, 1/4 cup of water and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve alongside rice if desired, enjoy!
Chinese food is typically healthier for you than most foods and this dish definitely is one of those healthy dishes.
So do not be ashamed if you eat the whole plate yourself.
I mean it is really packed full of lean protein = chicken breasts.
And lots and lots of vegetables!
IS BLACK PEPPER CHICKEN HEALTHY
Yes, it sure is however does have a fair amount of sodium.
So if your on a sodium diet, please use just the Oyster sauce and omit the soya.
This stir fry is so darn delicious that i’m confident it will be one of those recipes that you will want to keep in your recipe book.
And truthfully this is the best homemade Black Pepper Chicken Stir Fry that we have tried ever!
How can I make claims like that?
Well first off this is one of my favorite Asian dishes and so I have tried many different recipes throughout the years.
Not to mention I have ordered this dish at many of the Asian restaurants over the years and this one is defiantly up there in taste.
The only difference between my dish and those in the restaurants, is that they tend to bring it on sizzling hot plate.
And well, I have yet to do that myself.
That is not to say you can’t, for the wow factor.
I like to serve this with jasmine rice on the side, and will use a mini rice cooker to cook the rice. Just set it and it will be ready when the dish is completed.
This recipe does have a bit of a sauce, so serving this dish alongside some Jasmine rice is always good.
However if you are wanting to serve this as is feel free to add 1 tbsp of cornstarch to the sauce vs 1 tsp.
This will help to thicken it up even more leaving very little sauce.

Meal Prep Idea: Make enough to create a few meal prep bowls for the week ahead
Notes: Make it with shrimp, beef or tofu too. You may use any other vegetables you have on hand such as snow peas, red onions etc will work well too.
Also you can replace the black pepper with white pepper if desired. And add more water to create more of a sauce if putting this over rice.
