Raw Material Selection

Chicken
Choose the part of the chicken that suits your taste. Chicken breasts or chicken thighs are common choices. Chicken thighs tend to be fattier and more flavorful, while chicken breasts are leaner and cook faster. Make sure that the chicken is fresh and free from unpleasant odors.

Black Pepper
Use freshly ground black pepper for a sharper flavor and stronger aroma. Freshly ground black pepper is better than ready-made black pepper as it brings out its essential oils more optimally.

Seasoning Ingredients
To create an authentic flavor, prepare the following seasoning ingredients: garlic, shallots, ginger, and red chili. These are the ingredients that will give your dish complex layers of flavor.

Complementary Vegetables (optional)
Typically, black pepper chicken is served with vegetables such as green, red, or yellow bell peppers. These vegetable options not only add color, but also provide crunch and flavor balance.
