Garlic Pepper Chicken (Edit recipe)

Notes

What is oyster sauce? Oyster sauce is a thick, dark brown sauce commonly used in Chinese and Southeast Asian cuisines. It has a savory taste and is commonly used as a seasoning or condiment in stir-fries, marinades, and dipping sauces. Even though it's named oyster sauce, it doesn't solely consist of oysters. It's primarily made from oyster extracts, sugar, salt, cornstarch, and soy sauce. The cleanest, gluten-free oyster sauce I can find is the brand Wok Mei. If you want a crispy chicken you can coat the chicken with arrowroot starch or arrowroot flour before adding it to the hot pan. This will give the chicken a nice texture. If you choose to do this I would recommend adding a little bit of chicken stock or broth to your sauce so it doesn't get too thick. The arrowroot flour coating on the chicken can make the sauce thicker. A lot of Thai cuisine recipes use white pepper powder. You can add a little of this if you have it on hand. You can store any leftover chicken in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. To reheat your chicken, you can microwave it or heat it on the stove with some avocado oil on medium-low heat until warm.
