Recipe Summary Selena's Kong Bao Chicken

My college roommate was from Taiwan, and this dish that she made was my favorite. I asked for it so much she finally gave me her recipe! A great Asian dish to pair with rice and a veggie dish, or even to serve with toothpicks as a appetizer. Her measurements are not exact, as it is a dish handed down in her family and they just know how much to put in.

Ingredients | Banh Bao Recipe

¼ cup cornstarch

3 tablespoons rice wine

2 tablespoons soy sauce

½ pound skinless, boneless chicken breast, cut into 1-inch pieces

3 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh ginger root

6 dried red chile peppers

¼ cup rice wine

¼ cup soy sauce

¼ cup cornstarch

¼ cup white sugar

2 tablespoons water

2 tablespoons vinegar

2 teaspoons Asian (toasted) sesame oil

½ cup peanuts

4 green onions, cut into 1-inch pieces

Directions

Whisk 1/4 cup cornstarch, 3 tablespoons rice wine, and 2 tablespoons soy sauce together in a bowl. Add chicken to the marinade and stir to coat completely. Set aside to marinate for 15 minutes.

Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet. Cook and stir chicken in the hot oil until completely browned; remove from oil with a slotted spoon to a bowl, retaining oil and drippings in the skillet.

Pour remaining 1 tablespoon oil into the skillet and let it get hot before adding garlic, ginger, and red chile peppers; cook and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute. Return chicken to the skillet; cook and stir until the chicken is nearly cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes.

Whisk 1/4 cup rice wine, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 1/4 cup cornstarch, sugar, water, vinegar, and sesame oil together in a bowl; pour over the chicken mixture. Cook until the sauce begins to bubble, 3 to 5 minutes. Add peanuts and green onion; cook and stir 1 minute more.
