Ingredients:

• Chicken Fillets:
  • 500 grams boneless chicken breast
  • 1 large egg
  • All-purpose flour (for coating)
  • 2 packets black pepper sauce mix (such as Saory or Sasa brand)
  • 1 large onion
  • 2 red chili peppers (optional)
  • Marinade:
    • 4 cloves garlic, minced
    • 1 tablespoon ground coriander
    • 1 tablespoon ground black pepper
    • 1 seasoning cube (such as Royco)

Instructions:

Preparing the Chicken Fillets:

1. Cut and Tenderize: Slice the chicken breast into thin, even fillets according to your preference. For best results, cut the chicken into rectangular pieces. Gently pound the fillets with the back of a knife to help the marinade penetrate and to tenderize the meat.

2. Marinate: In a mixing bowl, combine the minced garlic, ground coriander, ground black pepper, and seasoning cube. Rub this marinade mixture all over the chicken fillets, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for approximately 1 hour to allow the flavors to infuse.

3. Coat the Chicken: After marinating, dip each fillet into the beaten egg, allowing any excess to drip off. Then coat the fillets thoroughly with all-purpose flour, shaking off any excess flour.

4. Fry: Heat a generous amount of oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Fry the coated fillets until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Once cooked through, remove from the oil and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain.

Making the Black Pepper Sauce:

1. Sauté Vegetables: In a separate pan, sauté the chopped onion, red chili peppers (if using), and paprika until the onion becomes translucent and slightly softened.

2. Prepare Sauce: Add the black pepper sauce mix to the pan, along with a small amount of water to achieve your desired sauce consistency. Stir well to combine and let it simmer for a few minutes until the sauce is heated through.

3. Combine: Once the sauce is ready, pour it generously over the fried chicken fillets.

Serve: Your Black Pepper Sauce Chicken Fillets are now ready to be enjoyed. Serve hot and savor the blend of crispy chicken with the savory, spicy sauce.

This dish pairs wonderfully with steamed rice or sautéed vegetables for a complete and delicious meal. Enjoy your culinary creation!
