Steps

1

Cut the chicken into 1 to 2 inch pieces and coarsely chop the onion. In a large skillet or wok add the chicken, onion and black pepper, cook on medium high heat until browned. TIP: you want to cook the chicken and onion until all the liquid in the skillet has evaporated and the chicken has browned a bit. The brown parts on the chicken give the sauce something to stick to. Put the cooked chicken aside in a bowl for later.
2

In the same skillet or wok, stir fry the chilli paste, garlic and scallions for 2 or 3 minutes over medium high heat to cook.
3

Add the oyster sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, half the cilantro and the chicken to the skillet and stir well. Heat over medium high heat until the sauce comes to a boil and then reduce to low heat. Simmer for 5 to 10 minutes stirring occasionally.
4

Top with the remaining cilantro and serve over rice.
