1 pound boneless and skinless chicken breasts (about 2 breasts halves)
1 medium size carrot
½ green bell pepper (3 oz.)
½ small yellow onion (3 oz.)
1 tablespoon canola or vegetable oil (for cooking in a non-stick wok or a fry pan)
1 tablespoon curry powder
1 teaspoon pure sesame oil
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon sugar

Marinade:
2 tablespoons soy sauce (Kikkoman brand)
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon sugar

Preparation:
Slice the chicken breasts lengthwise in half then cut crosswise into ¼ inch thin pieces. In a bowl, combine the chicken pieces with the marinade ingredients. Mix together thoroughly and set aside. Peel the carrot and slice crosswise into ¼ inch thin pieces. Cut the green bell pepper into 1 inch squares. Cut the onion into 1 inch chunks.

To Cook:
Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a non-stick wok or a large fry pan over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, brown 1 tablespoon of curry powder for just a few seconds. Add marinaded chicken, cook and stir to separate the chicken pieces for about 2 minutes. Add carrots, bell peppers and onions. Stir-fry until the chicken is almost cooked through and the vegetables are tender but still crisp for approximately 2 to 3 minutes. Add 1 teaspoon sesame oil, ½ teaspoon salt and ½ teaspoon sugar. Cook and stir for another minute. Serve hot.
