Instructions:
- In a small bowl, mix together soy sauce, cornstarch, and sesame seeds. Add the chopped chicken pieces and mix well to coat the meat with the marinade. Set aside for a few minutes to allow the chicken to absorb the flavors.
- In a large wok or deep frying pan, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Add chopped garlic and grated ginger, and sauté for about a minute until fragrant.
- Add the chicken and stir-fry for a few minutes until the outer surface of the meat browns. Then, add the bell pepper, carrot, and onion. Stir-fry everything together for a few minutes until the vegetables soften and the chicken is tender and well-cooked.
- In a bowl, mix together fish sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, and sugar. Add this sauce to the chicken and vegetables in the wok. Mix well to ensure that the sauce evenly coats everything. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Continue cooking for a few more minutes until the sauce thickens and all the ingredients are well combined.

And short story about LEET DIET
As a choreographer and aerial gymnast, I had always been interested in maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Diets had been my hobby, but I never truly enjoyed them until I discovered the Keto diet. After reading numerous books about how our bodies work and the benefits of a high-fat, low-carb diet, I decided to give it a try. I never looked back. The Keto lifestyle quickly became my passion, and I began experimenting with new recipes and meal plans. That's when I decided to share my knowledge with the world and created Leet Diet, a website filled with delicious Keto-friendly recipes and helpful tips for anyone looking to adopt a healthy lifestyle.
