Notes

  • Make sure to cut your chicken into small 1-inch / 2 cm cubes to allow for quicker cooking and easy browning.
  • Start with medium heat to sauté your chicken, making sure not to overcrowd your pan. You may need to do it in two batches if your pan is not big enough.
  • Add sauce immediately as soon as your chicken turns brown. Avoid over-cooking your chicken. Turn the heat up after you add in the sauce so that it thickens fast.
