Sweet Thai chilli chicken stirfry

by Effy A

This sweet Thai chilli chicken stirfry is so freaking delicious! This is one of my favorite sauces to use because it’s sweet, almost like sweet and sour sauce.

Cut the bell peppers into strips and the carrots into stick shapes. The chicken is tossed in cornstarch to make it crispy prior to soaking up the Thai chilli sauce. You don’t need to deep fry it though. Just a regular fry in a skillet until it’s cooked through, which doesn’t take too long. Take it out of the pan and then fry your onions, bell peppers and carrots together. Add the cooked chicken back into the pan and stir in the sweet Thai chilli sauce. Let it simmer for 5 minutes. Garnish your chicken stirfry with sesame seeds once it’s done.

This sweet Thai chilli stirfry goes great with plain boiled noodles or rice. If you want to be fancy, pair this with vegetable fried rice.
