Spicy Chicken bites

Last week we were invited by Pramod and Anju for the first birthday celebration of their son, Ambady. It was then that Anju had prepared this recipe in beef and we loved it a lot.She actually proved that she was not just a good dancer but a great chef too.It had a very distinctive flavor and I could not hold on to my curiosity to find out what was that special taste boosting ingredient in it.....Oyster Sauce!!!! I would have never figured that out.Me, being an enthusiastic food lover,immediately snatched this recipe from Anju and decided to try this in chicken. Anju,I really can't thank you enough...
