How to make it

  1. 1

    First things first, dice your chicken breast into nice bite-sized pieces. Then, slice up that red bell pepper into thin strips. This prep makes everything else a breeze.

  2. 2

    Now, let us make our delicious sauce. In a medium bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, soy sauce, and Sriracha until it is beautifully smooth. If it seems a little too thick, feel free to add just a tiny splash of water to loosen it up.

  3. 3

    Grab a large skillet or a wok and get it nice and hot over medium-high heat. Add your diced chicken and cook it until it is no longer pink and looks golden brown, which usually takes about 5 to 7 minutes.

  4. 4

    Toss the sliced bell pepper into the skillet with the chicken. Give it a good stir and cook for another 3 to 4 minutes. You want the pepper to soften slightly but still have a bit of a lovely crunch.

  5. 5

    Finally, pour your amazing peanut sauce over the chicken and bell pepper. Stir everything really well to make sure all the chicken and veggies are coated. Cook for just 1 to 2 more minutes, letting that sauce warm through and thicken a little. Serve it up hot and enjoy every delicious mouthful!
