INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Prepare the onion and capsicums and set aside.

6. Heat up a greased stir fry pan over a medium flame. Brown the meatballs until all surfaces have turned golden brown (do not need to cook through). Remove from the pan and set aside.

For the stir-fry:

1. In the same pan, add 2 teaspoons of oil in the pan over heat over medium heat.

4. Add the chicken meatballs and stir until well combined. Cover the pan with a lid and allow the meatballs to simmer over low-medium for 3 minutes.
5. Check to ensure the chicken meatballs are cooked through. If not, cover the pan with a lid again and simmer for another minute or two. Note - add 2 Tablespoons of water at a time should the sauce reduced to the extent of the sauce starts to stick to the pan.
6. Add the onion and capsicum back to the pan and add sweet soy sauce. Stir until well combined and heat through. Check for taste and adjust with more salt/soy sauce/sweet soy sauce.
7. Serve with steam rice. Enjoy!
