• Spicy Sichuan Chicken (La Zi Ji)

    Fiery Sichuan Dry-Fried Chicken with Chilies and Peppercorns

    Ingredients:

    1.5 lbs boneless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch cubes

    1 tablespoon Shaoxing wine

    1 teaspoon soy sauce

    1/2 teaspoon salt

    1/2 teaspoon white pepper

    1 tablespoon cornstarch

    1/2 cup dried red chilies (mild to hot, depending on preference)

    1 tablespoon Sichuan peppercorns

    4 cloves garlic, sliced

    1 inch ginger, sliced

    Oil for deep frying

    Directions:

    In a bowl, marinate the chicken with Shaoxing wine, soy sauce, salt, white pepper, and cornstarch for 15–20 minutes.
