    # Instructions

    * **Marinate chicken:** Prepare the chicken by combining soy sauce, rice wine, pepper, and cornflour. Mix well and marinate.
    * **Prepare sauce:** Mix scallions, ginger, garlic, sesame seeds, sesame oil, and pepper in a small bowl. Stir until well combined.
    * **Pan-fry the chicken:** Add oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat and place the chicken pieces in the pan.  Cook until lightly browned. Flip the chicken, then spoon the scallion-ginger sauce over the top. Cover the pan, reduce the heat to low-medium, and let it cook for 5 minutes.
    * **Finishing Touches:** Remove the lid, and if there’s excess water, turn the heat to high and let it reduce until the chicken starts sizzling.
