I just made it, and it’s absolutely delicious! I love the bright, citrus flavor from the Sichuan peppercorns. I love how the garlic and ginger add their own brightness and sweetness to the dish. The brown sugar is a very nice touch, it balances the acidity of the chile peppers. It’s a symphony of Asian flavors in my mouth. And it’s miles better than fast food! Wow! Thank you!
Happy new year, everyone!
WOW, it looks delicious! I’ll have to make this after Christmas.
WARNING: The quantity of peppercorns is way too much and it ruins the dish!!
I'm very familiar (as a diner) with the Sichuan peppercorn, and this is just completely too much. I've never had a dish with so much numbing even in China. In a very small quantity, in a dish where you're just picking out small pieces of fried chicken, it might be almost tolerable. But no way just eating it over rice. You can't taste any other flavor in the dish. I can't even taste any of the actual chili peppers in the dish. I don't care how much sugar you put, it's just crazy.
It's possible it's a typo and meant to be tsp instead of tbsp, but even that might be too much. I made the recipe faithfully, with no modifications. Anyone who says this is good must have made some substitutions one way or another, because this is honestly barely edible as-is.
My best guess for a correct amount is ½ tsp, or even less.
@Souped, can you please fix or explain?
I have made this 2 times both have been phenomenal! Thank you for this recipe i enjoyed it.
This chicken recipes looks absolutely my kind of food. Will definitely be doing this when I’ve bought a couple of missing ingredients. Your channel is excellent, well presented and explained and really yummy new ideas just waiting to be tried. Thanks for sharing.
No squash?
Hi I wanted to ask if you teach fish curry and ather kind please thank you 👏🏻👏🏻
This a TOTAL HIT!!!❤️ Tender chicken and slightly crunchy, juicy veggies. THANKYOU
Hello I have a question for you , I recently made this recipe , but my mouth was numb are you sure it's not 1 tpsp not one tbsp cuz I added one tbsp of peppercorns I diced up and my mouth was numb after I was finish lol
I love how you explain every ingredient and the science behind what it does to the dish- excellent, thank you!
Just made this and came out great! Love all your detailed recipes. Thank you!
I cooked this tonight after buying and using some of the ingredients for the first time. There is still a festival of flavour in my mouth.
Absolutely delicious.
My favorite dish 🤤🤤🤤
Yum Yummy 😊
doesn't the vinegar dissolve away some of the wok seasoning?
I tried this and it was delicious. Can't wait to cook another time. It was so darn spicy which I like. The peppercorn added was so yummy if you like real spicy food. 😋
Did you mean one tsp or one tbsp lol it taste like all pepper corn my mouth is numb lol
Nice video. When you introduce this dish to a beginner, it's useful to tell them to not eat the red peppers.
Question for Mandy – I have had kung pao chicken in restaurants where it did not have the red color, but instead was more brown, and had a different savory and sweet quality which I am trying to reproduce. Is there some other sauce besides the Sichuan Dou Ban Jiang that you would suggest might be used in these other versions of Kung Pao Chicken?
Thank you for sharing this I'm excited to try cooking this
Can I use red bell peppers with this dish?
THIS. WAS. AMAZING.
Cooked this up for my parents, but they wanted shrimp instead of chicken. Recipe still works great, its just like the kung pao chicken I dearly miss from Chongqing.
好美味！感谢你的料理教育，关注
Please give us a chop stick lesson..
What meals do you cook for your Arthritis?
I’m always impressed how you eat all these yummy food but your lipstick is just still perfect
THankku
I have learned so much from this talented lady. Should be on food network
Can’t wait to try. Looks almost like mapo tofu recipe
Beautiful recipe! This dish is on constant rotation at my dinner table! Great job explaining.
Cool. Loving the tips on substitute ingredients
I'm secretly drooling at that wok of yours. I love the Mala tang in sichuanese food. But since I am allergic peanuts, I made your recipe with cashews. Worked really well. I didn't have onion powder, so I added a bit of Uncle Roger's favourite powder to the marinade.
my mouth is wayering right now she says lol
Looks amazing 👏
Yummy , I will try and tell ya soon
I have woks coming out of my ears! But I just went and bought the wok you are using in this video. I have several carbon steel woks that I'm not very good at using. The one is huge and heavy-too heavy for me, as I'm old. It was said to be restaurant quality. It's really nice, but it got some rust on it and I don't know how to get rid of it. But it's still very heavy. I have a smaller wok just like it, so I was going to try to cook with the smaller one, but it's coated with something protective because it's never been used. I don't know how to remove that coating. I am not a very good cook, either. 🙁 I keep trying and tonight I made a pretty good dish in my stainless steel wok and it came out delicious, but I'm not sure if it tastes like it was supposed to taste because I've never eaten it before. Your tip about using onion powder is interesting. I will try that next time a recipe calls for onions and I'll probably put in some real onions, too if it wouldn't hurt. Do you also use garlic powder? Thank you
