Kung Pao Chicken

Another classic Chinese dish that I wanted to try for the longest time. I don’t know what kept me from trying this sooner-it was so simple to make, really.

Just like the General Tso’s chicken this is the first time that I’ve tried this dish, I don’t remember ever seeing this on the menu of any of the Chinese Restaurants that we’ve been to or maybe – like I already said before – I wasn’t perusing the menu long enough before ordering.

If you’re like me and have not tried this dish yet why not make it at home and discover how good it is.. okay I’ll tell you now– it’s hot and spicy-with-a-hint-of-sweetness-delicious!

Happy Cooking! ü

Saute the chicken fillet pieces until brown then add garlic and chillies.

Add sauce and stir well to coat chicken pieces evenly; add peanuts and cook some more for about a minute then..

..Serve! Let’s eat! 😃

  • Remove excess oil and leave only about a tablespoon or two.

  • Stir-fry then until garlic is fragrant and golden.
  • Then incorporate the chicken pieces from the side of the pan to the garlic and chilis.
