CHICKEN IN SWEET AND HOT PEPPER SAUCE
If you don't like it hot, leave out the peppers and cayenne; I would think you end up with a nice sweet sauce but without "the kick". You can use parsley if you are not a basil fan.

Tips:
- Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all the necessary ingredients and equipment. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling during the cooking process.
- Choose the Right Pepper: For this recipe, it is best to use bell peppers that are firm and brightly colored. Avoid any peppers that have soft spots or bruises.
- Slice the Peppers Evenly: To ensure even cooking, slice the bell peppers into uniform pieces. This will help them cook evenly.
- Marinate the Chicken: Marinating the chicken in a mixture of soy sauce, rice wine, sesame oil, and Chinese five-spice powder will help to tenderize the chicken and infuse it with flavor.
- Use a Wok or Large Skillet: A wok or large skillet is ideal for stir-frying. It will allow you to cook the chicken and vegetables quickly and evenly.
- Stir-Fry in Batches: If you are cooking a large amount of chicken and vegetables, stir-fry them in batches. This will prevent the food from overcrowding the pan and steaming instead of stir-frying.
- Add the Sauce at the End: To prevent the sauce from burning, add it to the pan at the end of the cooking process. Stir quickly to coat the chicken and vegetables evenly.

Sweet pepper chicken is a delicious, healthy, and easy-to-make dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages.
