Title: Easy Kung Pao Chicken
Categories: Poultry, Chilies, Herbs
Yield: 4 servings
1 lb Boned, skinned chicken; in
- 1/2" chunks
3 tb Soy sauce
2 ts Corn starch
Salt & ground black or
- Sichuan pepper
1 1/2 tb Chinkiang (black) vinegar or
- balsamic vinegar
2 ts Sugar
1/4 c Neutral oil
1/2 c Small dried red chilies
Mix the chicken, 1 tb soy sauce, 1 ts corn starch, and a big pinch
of salt and pepper in a bowl until evenly coated. Let sit while you
prepare the sauce.
Stir the vinegar, sugar, remaining 2 tb soy sauce and 1 ts corn
starch in a small bowl.
Combine the oil and chiles in a wok or large nonstick skillet, and
set over medium heat. When the chiles start to sizzle and brown,
about 15 seconds, push them to one side of the pan. Add the chicken
to the other side all at once and spread in a single, even layer.
Cook, without moving the pieces, until the bottoms are dark golden
brown, 3 to 5 minutes. If the chiles start to blacken, put them on
top of the chicken so that they don't burn.
Using a large spatula, flip the chicken in portions. Cook just
until the meat almost loses all of its pinkness, 1 to 2 minutes
more. Stir the sauce and pour it into the pan. Stir until the sauce
thickens and slicks the chicken evenly. Immediately transfer to a
plate and serve hot.
