Steps:
- Combine the chicken and the marinade ingredients in a bowl, and mix until all the liquid is absorbed. Allow to marinate for 30 minutes.
- Pre-heat your wok over high heat, until it starts to smoke. This step is essential, as it prevents the chicken from sticking to the wok. With your spatula, spread 2 tablespoons of oil over the bottom of the wok. Add the chicken, and quickly spread the pieces into a single layer. Let the chicken cook for about 30 seconds, flip, and cook the other side for another 30 seconds. The chicken is done once it turns opaque--be careful not to overcook it. Turn off the heat, transfer the chicken to a dish, and set aside.
- Next, heat 1 tablespoon of oil in the wok over medium heat. Add the ginger, and let it cook for 15 seconds. Next, add the garlic, the white parts of the scallions, and the black beans. Stir for another 30 seconds. Now turn up the heat to high. Add the green and red peppers, and stir fry for about a minute. Add the sugar, Shaoxing wine, salt, the chicken, 2 tablespoons of water, and the green parts of the scallion. Quickly stir-fry everything well to coat in the sauce, and serve!

CHICKEN AND VEGETABLES IN BLACK BEAN SAUCE
I was always under the belief that Gai Lan (Chinese Kale) was Chinese BROCCOLI, but you gotta love the Internet with its abundance of information and pictures! I've only found it in my local Chinese market, but in the event you can't find it feel free to use whatever vegetable that you want. I substitute broccoli or baby bok...

CHICKEN IN BLACK BEAN SAUCE
From my favorite cookbook- The Roosevelt Raccoons "All of Our Favorites" cookbook. The cookbook contains recipes from active parents and teachers of Roosevelt Elementary School, Mankato, MN. It is where I went to school, and my family submitted all of our family favorites for it. So, we probably have 10 copies of the book in our house! This recipe was from Fahn Hakkila, a friend of ours.

BLACK BEAN SAUCE CHICKEN WITH VEGETABLES
I'm a fiend for black bean sauce so had to try this (tweaked slightly) when I saw it at the Uwajimaya website. Preparation time doesn't include time to cook rice (could also be served over noodles). I'm sure pork could substitute admirably for chicken.

Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all the ingredients and equipment you need. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling around in the middle of cooking.
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your dish will taste. Whenever possible, use organic or locally-sourced ingredients.
- Don't be afraid to experiment: If you don't have a particular ingredient on hand, feel free to substitute something else. Just make sure you use something that has a similar flavor profile.
- Season your food to taste: Don't be afraid to add salt, pepper, and other spices to your dish. Just be careful not to overdo it.
- Cook your chicken thoroughly: Chicken should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. You can use a meat thermometer to check the temperature.
- Don't overcrowd your pan: When you're cooking chicken or vegetables, make sure you don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
- Use a non-stick pan: A non-stick pan will help prevent your chicken and vegetables from sticking to the pan.
- Serve immediately: Black bean sauce chicken with vegetables is best served immediately after it's cooked. This will ensure that the chicken is still tender and juicy.
