The dish is typically made with boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts that are marinated in a mixture of soy sauce, oyster sauce, garlic, ginger, and black pepper.

Tips:
- To make the chicken more flavorful, marinate it in the soy sauce, sesame oil, and pepper mixture for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
- If you don't have time to marinate the chicken, you can still make this dish. Just add the chicken to the wok with the other ingredients and cook until cooked through.
- Use a large wok or skillet to cook the chicken. This will help to ensure that the chicken cooks evenly.
- Cook the chicken over high heat until it is browned on all sides. This will help to lock in the flavor.
- Add the vegetables to the wok and cook until they are tender-crisp. Do not overcook the vegetables, or they will become mushy.
- Serve the chicken and vegetables over rice or noodles.
