Add the chilli, half the onion, half of the garlic, and half of the ginger and cook for 5 minutes or until the onion starts to soften.

Step 3

Add the pepper, sugar snaps, and pak choi to the frying pan, along with the remaining onion, garlic, ginger, and black beans. Stir-fry for 7-8 minutes or until the peppers and onions are soft, then stir in the chicken.
