Description

This Kung Pao style chicken is an explosion of Asian flavors with a spicy touch that you will love. The combination of soy sauce, balsamic vinegar and the sweet touch of sugar make this dish a unique culinary experience. Ideal for a quick weeknight dinner or to surprise your guests with an exotic and delicious dish. I prepare it often and it is always a success. Go ahead and try it! You can adjust the amount of chilies to control the level of spiciness. Serve with white rice for a complete and balanced meal.

Ingredients (15 ingredients)

  • 500 gramos chicken breast
  • 40 mililitros soy sauce
  • 1 cucharada sopera hoisin sauce
  • 2 cucharadas soperas balsamic vinegar
  • 2 cucharadas soperas extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 cucharadas soperas cornstarch
  • 2 piece dried chilies
  • 1 piece green bell pepper
  • 1 piece red bell pepper
  • 1 pinch black peppercorns
  • 1 cucharadita garlic powder or ground
  • 1 cucharadita ground ginger
  • 2 piece chives
  • 1 cucharadita sugar
  • 50 gramos toasted peanuts without salt

Preparation (6 steps)

1

Marinate the chicken

Cut the chicken breast into small cubes. Place 20 ml of soy sauce and 1 tablespoon of cornstarch in a bowl. Mix both ingredients and put the chicken in the bowl so that it is well impregnated with the marinade. Cover and let marinate for 30 minutes.

2

Prepare the vegetables

While the chicken is marinating, cut the peppers into small pieces and cut the chives with their green stems into slices. Set aside.

3

Prepare the sauce

Place 20 ml of soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, hoisin sauce, sugar, garlic powder and ginger in a bowl. Finally, add a tablespoon of cornstarch and mix all the ingredients so that the sauce thickens.

4

Fry the chilies and brown the chicken

Pour the olive oil into a frying pan, fry the chopped chilies and sprinkle with pepper. Add the marinated chicken and let it brown for a few minutes. Remove and set aside.

5

Sauté the peppers and chives

In the same oil where the chicken was browned, place the peppers and the chopped chives. Cook until softened and incorporate the peanut or peanuts. Finally, add the chicken. Mix all the preparation and cook over medium heat so that all the ingredients are integrated.
