Chili Chicken & Red Pepper Stir fry Recipe Video

Today I have an Indonesian-inspired chicken stir-fry I made as a result of running out of soy sauce and mirin. I was originally gonna make some teriyaki chicken, but all I had left was some kecap manis and shaoxing cooking wine. Threw in some chili and a half red pepper and here's what I came up with. Put this on your weekday cooking playlist. It's easy as pie and I'm gonna show you how to do it right now on The Aimless Cook.
