• Verdant waves: 1 green bell pepper, sliced elegantly
• Earthy jewels: 4 ounces of sliced portobello mushrooms
• Sweet onion embrace: 1 small onion, artfully wedged

Step 1

Prepare a delectable sauce by blending water, rich brown sugar, tangy vinegar, savory soy sauce, fragrant sesame oil, zesty garlic paste, flavorful fish sauce, and umami-packed oyster sauce in a mixing bowl. Incorporate tapioca flour into the soy sauce mixture to create a luscious sauce, then set it aside for later use.

Step 2

Begin by warming up the sesame oil in a spacious wok. Introduce vibrant bell peppers, earthy mushrooms, and aromatic onions to the sizzling wok. Stir the vegetables occasionally until they have softened, which should take approximately 5 minutes. Next, add the tender chicken pieces and cook until they are thoroughly cooked through, ensuring the juices run clear, usually around 5 minutes. Toss in some sliced garlic and continue to cook and stir until its enticing aroma fills the kitchen, for about a minute. Finally, pour in the prepared sauce, and stir the mixture until the sauce begins to slightly thicken, which usually takes about 5 minutes.
