Chicken with vegetables in Chinese style is a very tasty, easy to prepare, savory chicken fillet with cauliflower and asparagus beans. I love Chinese cuisine, when I find new recipes, I’m definitely trying to cook. A distinctive feature of chicken in Chinese - sweet and sour taste. I deliberately reduce the amount of sugar in the recipe, because, in my opinion, it is a bit too much, but you can adjust the taste on your own - add a little more or a little less vinegar or sugar.
Vegetables in Chinese recipes should be crispy, for this they are cut finely and cooked very quickly. If you are a happy owner of a wok pan, then this recipe is just right for cooking in a wok.

Cut the chicken fillet into small cubes. Shred carrots fine straw. Throw the carrot into the pan, after a few minutes add the chicken.
Fry the meat, stirring, then pour the rice vinegar and soy sauce, pour the sugar, salt to taste. Fry all together for another 5 minutes, add diced sweet bell pepper.
We sort the cauliflower into small inflorescences, put in boiling salted water for 2-3 minutes, then throw to the chicken.
Asparagus beans can be put in a frying pan frozen, so tender pods will keep their green color and remain tender.
Add 2-3 teaspoons of dried green chili and a tablespoon of dried carrots. Such seasonings are usually put to get a variety of textures.
Add tomato puree or pour thick tomato sauce, stir and cook over high heat for about 8 minutes, until the moisture evaporates.
Remove the pan from the heat, sprinkle chicken with Chinese-style vegetables with black sesame, leek rings, pepper with freshly ground black pepper.
