  • 1 tsp oyster sauce
  • 1 tsp light soy sauce
  • * 1 teaspoon brown sugar or palm sugar (*1pt)
  • 4 pinches of ground white pepper (black pepper looks like burnt flecks)
  • 1 TB vegetable oil

Turn on fry pan or wok to LOW heat and add the oil.
Fry the chicken mix until the chicken is cooked.

Not on Core? The total Points for this recipe is 3.5pts
If serving with rice, don't forget to add the points for rice - 1/2 cup cooked rice is 1.5 pts

On Core, allow 1 pt for the sugar.
