Clean the chicken and cut them into strips. Mix chicken strips with all the ingredients given in List 2 ( add corn starch at last and then mix well). Let it marinate for 1 hour.

Heat 1/2 tsp of oil in wok, saute both the peppers for 2 mins and then remove them from wok. In the same wok add 1 tsp of oil and the marinated chicken, saute the chicken in high heat for 5 mins or until chicken is cooked. When the chicken is cooked pour the sauce and mix well such that each piece of chicken is coated well with sauce. Later add both the peppers and mix well, then its ready to serve.
