Sweet and Spicy Thai Chicken

In a medium bowl, combine soy sauce, sweet chili sauce, fish sauce, brown sugar, lime juice, and red pepper flakes. Stir until sugar dissolves and set aside.

Cook Aromatics:

Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

Add minced garlic and grated ginger, stir constantly, and fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Cook Chicken:

Add chicken pieces and cook 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned and nearly cooked through.

Add Vegetables:

Stir in sliced bell pepper and onion. Cook 3–4 minutes until vegetables are tender but still crisp.

Combine with Sauce:
