Tips

  • Velvetting the meat with water, shaoxing, salt, baking soda, cornstarch, and oil will make the meat super tender, so don't skip it.
  • You can omit the rice wine or use dry sherry.
  • You can use other colors of bell peppers, but they tend to be sweeter.
  • Do not overcook the chicken as it cooks very fast.
