Recipes - Pepper Prawns In Oyster Sauce

I love Chinese food, and I am always on the quest to find declious recipes. This one is not only very tastey, its also very easy to make and takes only minutes.

8 oz Medium Prawns (shell removed and deveined)
1 onion chopped
2 cloves of Garlic - minced
1 green pepper chopped
1 inch piece of ginger peeled and sliced (or 1 teaspoon powdered)
2 fresh chillies - finely sliced (you can use dried, and adjust it to your taste)
Black pepper, freshly ground (to taste)
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon Oyster sauce
2 tablespoons Chicken stock

Heat a wok till it's medium hot. Add the oil and wait till it gets hot. Then add the onionn and fry for about a minute. Add the garlic, ginger, green pepper and chillies. Stir-fry for about 10-20 seconds.

Add the prawns and stir-fry for another 30 seconds, add the black pepper.
Now add the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and chicken stock. Turn up the heat to high and stir-fry for another 30 seconds. Let the sauces thicken but not burn.

Remove from heat when prawns are cooked through. The prawns should be pink, take care not to over cook them or they will become rubbery. Enjoy this dish with brown or white rice.
