Delicious Kung Pau Chicken. Kinda spicy, so watch the chili oil if you want it a little milder. This is a really quick meal to fix; goes great with rice and stir-fried veggies.
Ingredients:
1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon hot chili oil
1/4 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon peanut or vegetable oil
1/3 cup roasted peanuts
2 green onions, cut into short, thin stripes
lettuce leaves (optoinal)
Directions:
1. Cut chicken into 1-inch pieces. Toss chicken with garlic and chili oil in medium bowl.
2. Blend soy sauce into cornstarch in cup until smooth.
3. Heat wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil; heat until hot. Add chicken mixture; stir-fry 3 miutes or until chicken is no longer pink.
4. Stir soy sauce mixture and add to wok along with peanuts and green onions. Stir-fry 1 minute or until sauce boils and thickens. Serve on a bed of lettuce leaves, if desired.
