Ingredients

Method

In large nonstick skillet or wok, heat 1 tsp of the oil over medium-high heat; stir-fry chicken until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Remove to plate.

Add remaining oil to pan. Add onion, green beans, ginger and garlic; stir-fry until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add 1/3 cup water; cover and cook over medium heat until no liquid remains and beans are slightly softened, about 3 minutes.

Whisk together oyster sauce, cornstarch, garlic chili sauce and 1/4 cup water; set aside.

Add red pepper to pan; stir-fry over medium-high heat until tender-crisp, about 3 minutes. Pour in oyster sauce mixture. Return chicken to pan; stir-fry until chicken is no longer pink inside, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle with peanuts.
