Szechuan Chicken. Fried chicken tossed in a sweet, savory sauce with spicy flavors and szechuan peppercorns for a mouth-tingling sensation. A Chinese main dish with bold flavors ready in 30 minutes! This serves best with rice.

Quick &amp; Easy Szechuan Chicken

lb chicken breast (or sub with skinless boneless chicken thighs)

red bell pepper (diced)

green bell pepper (diced)

onion (diced)

red chilies (or substitute with 1-2 fresh large red chillies chopped)

ginger (peeled)

cornstarch (or potato starch)

vegetable oil (or neutral oil)

hoisin sauce

brown sugar

1.5 tsp sichuan peppercorn powder (optional)

chicken broth (low sodium or substitute with cold water)

water (cold)

tsp baking soda (do not skip!)

tbsp vegetable oil (or any neutral oil)

Dice chicken into 1-inch pieces. Avoid making them any larger as it prevents the marinade from tenderizing (or velveting) the chicken properly. Transfer chicken pieces into a large bowl.

Add Marinade ingredients as listed to the diced chicken and marinate for at least 20 minutes (or overnight or a few hours in advance) in the fridge.

In a small bowl, combine Sauce ingredients as listed above until well combined. Set aside.

Add 1/4 cup cornstarch to the marinated chicken and toss with tongs until diced chicken is evenly coated.

Heat 1/4 cup vegetable oil or any neutral oil in a large skillet or wok on medium-high heat. Dip a wooden chopstick into the oil and when you see bubbles, carefully lower the coated chicken into the hot oil.

Fry chicken until golden, about 4-5 minutes. Flip over and fry on the other side for 4-5 minutes. Do not overcook the chicken. Remove and transfer cooked chicken to a plate.

Reserve 1 tbsp of oil in the pan and remove the rest. On medium heat, add dried red chilies and stir fry for 20 seconds.

Stir fry onions, ginger, and bell peppers for 30 seconds.

Pour in sauce and simmer to thicken. Once thickened, toss back in the fried chicken. Once combined, remove off heat and serve immediately with hot rice.
