Spicy Chicken Làzǐ jī 辣子鸡

At the end of my very first post I stated that I have already made a new spicy Taiwanese dish. Finally, I am back to post all the pictures and somewhat collaborative recipe of this Spicy Chicken dish (pronounced Lau zi chi).

1. Process chicken thighs in food processor or chop into small pieces.
2. Marinade in cooking wine (rice wine), soy sauce, finely chopped garlic and ginger.
3. In large wok bring to high heat frying oil in which to put the chicken mixture. After once fried transfer to clean oil and double fry.


Chicken should come out crispy. 

Roasted peanuts and crushed red pepper. 



Chopped/Julienne on bias: Celery, Cilantro, Garlic, Green hot pepper, fresh red pepper.
4. In a large wok heat up oil. Add in dried hot pepper and stir in prepped vegetables. Saute in wok until crisp-tender. Add in double fried crispy chicken thigh pieces and peanuts.
5. Enjoy after 3-5 minutes of additional sauteing.
