Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 395°F (200°C) and prepare a baking sheet by greasing it with vegetable oil or lining it with foil.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine chicken chunks with sea salt, ground black pepper, and cornstarch, then spread evenly on one side of the baking sheet.
  3. On the other side of the baking sheet, place diced green bell pepper drizzled with vegetable oil and toss to coat, then bake for 15 minutes.
  4. While baking, whisk together vegetable oil, soy sauce, minced ginger, red pepper flakes, minced garlic, and brown sugar until smooth.
  5. After 15 minutes, pour the sauce over the chicken and peppers, stir gently, and return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes.
  6. Remove from the oven, allow to cool slightly, and garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions before serving.
