Black Pepper Chicken
Serves 4.
Although black pepper beef is more well-known, this dish also works really well with chicken (and is a little more economical, too). The black pepper in this stir-fry provides a lovely warmth, rather than the sometimes fiery heat of chiles. From “Kitchen Sanctuary Quick and Easy,” by Nicky Corbishley (Kyle Books, 2024).
