    Start by preparing your ingredients: slice the chicken, bell pepper, and onion. Mince the garlic and chop the green onion.

    2

    In a large skillet or wok, heat the oil over medium-high heat for about 1 minute until it shimmers.

    3

    Add the minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant but not browned.

    4

    Add the chicken to the skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring frequently, until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink.

    5

    Add the sliced onion and bell pepper to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until they are slightly softened.

    6

    Stir in the soy sauce and chili paste, mixing well to coat all the ingredients evenly. Cook for an additional 2 minutes.

    7

    Finally, add in the basil and chopped green onion. Toss everything together for 1 minute until the basil is wilted and fragrant.

    Give everything a final taste, adjust seasoning if desired, and serve hot!
