Preparation:
  1. Cut the chicken breast into 2 cm thick cutlets, then cut them into equal cubes.

  2. Strain the bamboo and cut into julienne or thin slices.

  3. If you use pepper, this is an optional variant, clean it of seeds and stems and cut it into smaller cubes. This may work for you if you can't find bamboo in the store.

  4. Finely chop the shallot and garlic.

  5. Make the sauce mixture first. In a small bowl, mix the starch and soy sauce without lumps, add the remaining ingredients for the sauce and mix once more.

NOTE:
  • Instead of wine, you can use vegetable broth

  • Instead of chicken breast, you can use chicken thigh or tenderloin.

  • Do not use a darker soy sauce because the flavor will be very strong.

  • Keep the rest of the food in the refrigerator for up to 2–3 days.
