👩🍳 Instructions
- Prep the Rice: Start your steamed rice according to package directions so it’s hot and fluffy when the chicken is ready! 🍚💨

- Sauce it Up: Return the chicken to the pan. Pour in the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes. 🌶️🥣
- The Sizzle: Toss everything together over high heat for 2 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats every piece of chicken and pepper in a glossy glaze. 🌪️🤤
- Serve: Scoop a generous portion of stir-fry next to a mountain of steamed white rice. Garnish with sesame seeds or green onions if you’re feeling fancy! 🥢🍽️
