Step-by-Step Instructions for Dragon Chicken
- In a mixing bowl, combine chicken strips with soy sauce, egg, cornstarch, and all-purpose flour. Toss until coated and let marinate for 15-20 minutes.
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the marinated chicken in batches for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- In a separate pan, heat oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and grated ginger, sautéing for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add sliced bell peppers to the pan, cooking for about 2 minutes until they soften but retain crunch.
- Stir in chili garlic sauce, ketchup, soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, and red chili flakes. Simmer for 3-4 minutes.
- Return fried chicken to sauce mixture, tossing to coat. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
- Garnish with chopped green onions and toasted sesame seeds or cashews. Serve immediately over jasmine rice or noodles.

Notes
Hot oil is crucial for crispy chicken. Avoid overcrowding the pan while frying. Adjust spice levels to taste.
