  • Add the sliced baby carrots, halved baby corn, chopped bok choy, and sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender-crisp and slightly caramelized.
  • Stir in the dark soy sauce, white wine vinegar, sugar, salt, and crushed Sichuan peppercorns. Continue to cook for another minute, allowing the sauce to coat the vegetables.
  • Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) for 10 minutes.
  • Lightly grease a grill pan with olive oil. Place the marinated chicken breasts on the grill pan and drizzle with the remaining olive oil.
  • Grill the chicken for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, or until the chicken is cooked through and slightly charred. The internal temperature should reach 74°C (165°F).

  • Garnish with toasted sesame seeds, sliced red jalapeños (optional), and microgreens (optional).

Recipe Notes

Good To Know

  • For extra depth of flavor, marinate the chicken overnight in the fridge. This allows the spices and hung curd to tenderize the meat and infuse it with tangy notes.
  • If you prefer your veggies extra crunchy and vibrant, sauté them over high heat for only 2-3 minutes, tossing frequently to avoid steaming.
  • To add an authentic Chinese flair, toss the sautéed veggies with a splash of dark soy sauce and a pinch of Sichuan peppercorns just before serving for a subtle numbing heat.
  • Garnish with toasted sesame seeds and chopped scallions for an appealing presentation and a nutty crunch.

Expert Tips

  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken is cooked to a safe internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  • For a smokier flavor, grill the chicken over charcoal instead of using a gas grill or pan-frying.
  • Customize your veggies! Feel free to substitute or add other vegetables like bell peppers, broccoli, or mushrooms.

Storage Instructions

  • Store leftover chicken and vegetables separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat gently in the microwave or on the stovetop, being careful not to overcook the chicken.
