Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic, white parts of scallion and saute for 2 minutes. Add onions, bell peppers and saute for 2 minutes. Then add soy and mix until well combined.
Add cornstarch and water mixture, mix well. Cook until sauce thickens slightly, then add baked Alpha chick’n nuggets. Mix well until all ingredients are coated in the soy garlic sauce. Add 2-3 tablespoons of water to adjust consistency. Taste and adjust seasoning.
