- In the same pan, over medium health, add white onions, ginger, and garlic and sauté until softened (about 5 minutes).
- Add to the pan the cooked ground chicken, bell peppers, sweet chili sauce, and Sriracha sauce. Stir until ingredients are well combined, and red pepper has softened (about 5 minutes).
