Steps
- Halve the Itogreen Peppers lengthwise, remove the seeds, and cut into bite-sized pieces.
- Thoroughly drain the firm tofu by patting it dry with paper towels, then slice into 1cm thick pieces.
- Slice the onion into slightly thick pieces.
- Thinly slice the ginger and garlic.
- Rinse the chicken thighs under water, pat dry with paper towels, and cut into pieces slightly larger than bite-sized.
- Season both sides of the cut chicken with a pinch of salt and a pinch of pepper.
- Lightly coat the chicken pieces with all-purpose flour. (Key Technique!) Coating with flour helps the flavors penetrate better and thickens the sauce during simmering.
- Beat 1 egg and coat the floured chicken pieces evenly.
- Heat 2 tbsp+ of Toasted Sesame Oil in a frying pan. Add the drained firm tofu and cook over medium-low heat until browned on both sides.
- Once the tofu is browned, remove it from the pan.
- In the same frying pan, add the prepared chicken thighs and cook over medium heat, starting with the skin side down.
- Once both sides of the chicken have browned, remove it from the pan. It's okay if the inside is still slightly raw.
- Add the sliced onion to the frying pan with the remaining chicken fat, and sauté until softened and slightly colored.
- Once the onion is softened, add the thinly sliced garlic and ginger, and stir-fry until fragrant.
- When the onion has developed a good color, return the browned chicken thighs to the frying pan.
- Add Shaoxing Wine (5 tbsp), Soy Sauce (5 tbsp), and Sugar (4 tbsp). Stir-fry and reduce the sauce, aiming to caramelize the soy sauce and sugar. (Key Technique!) By stir-frying the soy sauce and sugar over high heat until caramelized before adding water, you achieve a rich flavor without using a soup base.
- Once it reaches a caramelized state, add water until the ingredients are just covered.
- Add a pinch of pepper, cover, and simmer over medium heat for 3-4 minutes.
- Return the browned firm tofu to the pot.
- Add ketchup (1 tbsp), cover, and simmer for another 2 minutes.
- After simmering, add the cut Itogreen Peppers to the pot. Drizzle in vinegar (1 tbsp) and sesame oil (2 tbsp).
- Mix everything together well. Once the sauce has thickened, it's ready to serve.
