Savory Black Pepper Chicken with Mushrooms: A Flavorful 30-Minute Dish! (Page 3 ) | March 22, 2025

Step 3: Stir-Fry the Chicken and Mushrooms

  1. Heat 1 tbsp of vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the marinated chicken and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until lightly golden. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  3. In the same pan, add another tbsp of oil and stir-fry mushrooms for 2-3 minutes until they begin to soften.
  4. Add onions, bell peppers, garlic, and ginger. Stir-fry for another 2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 4: Combine Everything

  1. Return the cooked chicken to the pan and mix well with the vegetables.
  2. Pour the prepared black pepper sauce over the mixture, stirring continuously until everything is evenly coated and the sauce thickens (about 2 minutes).
  3. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. If you like it spicier, add more crushed black pepper or red pepper flakes.
  4. Remove from heat and serve immediately over steamed rice or noodles.
