Hawaiian Chili Pepper Chicken Recipe

Here is a recipe for Hawaiian Chili Pepper Chicken which uses one of the small but powerful Hawaiian Chili Peppers. Don't let their small size trick you, these buggers are hot and commonly used in Hawaii for chili pepper water (a local condiment.) Mmmmmm, so good. Enjoy!!!




  • 1Tbs Cornstarch
  • 3Tbs Shoyu (Soy Sauce)
  • 1Tbs Sherry
  • 2tsp  Sugar
  • 1tsp  Vinegar
  • 3 Chicken Breasts (Boneless, Skinless)
  • 1/4 Cup Oil
  • 1 Hawaiian Chili Pepper (Finely Chopped)
  • 1/3 Cup Green Onion
  • 1/2 tsp  Ginger (Finely Chopped)

Cut the boneless skinless chicken breast into cubes. Mix the cornstarch and 1Tbs shoyu. Blend with chicken. Set aside. Mix the other 2 Tbs of shoyu, sherry, sugar and vinegar. Set aside. Heat 3Tbs of oil in a skillet, add chicken and chili peppers. Saute for 2 minutes and set aside. Next, saute green onions and ginger for one minute, then put the chicken back into the pan. Cook for 3 minutes. Add shoyu mixture from a previous step and cook until done (a couple of minutes.)
