Preparing the chicken
Start by mixing the soy sauce and the rice wine vinegar with the chicken, then add the cornstarch and coat well. Let it marinate for 10-20 minutes. In a hot pan, add 1 tablespoon of the oil and cook the chicken until it turns fully cooked and golden. It will form a nice crust because of the cornstarch. Take the chicken out on a plate.

Finishing the dish
In the same pan, add the remaining oil and fry the garlic, ginger and chillies until fragrant. Do not burn. Add the chicken to the pan, stir for 1 minute, then add the sauce (for the sauce simply mix all the ingredients listed above together) and the onion and the peanuts and stir until thickened.
Serve with steamed Jasmine rice.
I told you it is that easy! Enjoy!
