Creating the flavorful Spicy Dragon Chicken is straightforward if you follow these easy steps:

1. Prepare the Chicken: In a bowl, toss the chicken pieces with cornstarch until evenly coated. This will give the chicken a crispy texture when cooked.
2. Heat the Oil: In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
3. Cook the Chicken: Add the chicken to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken and set aside.
4. Sauté Aromatics: In the same skillet, add minced garlic and ginger. Sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
5. Add Vegetables: Toss in the bell pepper and broccoli. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
6. Prepare the Sauce: In a bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sriracha, rice vinegar, and sesame oil.
7. Combine: Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, pour the sauce over, and toss everything together. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through.
8. Garnish: Remove from heat and garnish with chopped green onions, sesame seeds, and fresh cilantro if desired.
9. Serve Immediately: Enjoy this dish while it’s hot, paired with steamed rice or noodles.

By following these steps, you’ll create a dish that is as visually stunning as it is delicious.
