- Make the marinade by mixing together the sugar, salt, soy sauce and cornflour slurry. Mix in the chicken, let marinate for 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, blanch the bean sprouts in boiling water for 30 seconds. Drain and set aside.
- In a small bowl, mix together the oyster sauce, sugar and water to make the sauce. Set aside.
- Heat a large frying pan with 1 tablespoon oil over high heat. Stir-fry the garlic and garlic sauce until fragrant, about 2-3 minutes. Stir in the onion and salt and cook until soft, 3-4 minutes. Add the chicken and stir-fry until the meat turns opaque, 3-4 minutes.
- Add the sauce, mix and allow to heat through, 1-2 minutes. Close the lid and simmer for 3 minutes. Stir in the pepper, cook for 1-2 minutes. Add the bean sprouts and cornflour slurry and stir until the sauce is thickened. Serve.

Fantastic - family loved it more than local takeaway - doubled the quantity and used 2 sachets (120g) of BB and Garlic sauce, plus used 3 whole peppers and 450g of Beansprouts and 3 onions - making it again tonight and thought I should say thank you for this really lovely recipe! - 25 Feb 2017
This was really nice. A subtle flavour, not as strong as black bean sauce from a takeaway, but really nice in its own right. Tweaked slightly to use a full packet of Black Bean Stir Fry Sauce (120g) and I'd say it makes 3 me-sized portions rather than 6 - 07 Jun 2015
