Add the Szechuan peppercorn and dried red chilies.Make this easy, spicy salt and pepper chicken dish at home instead of ordering a takeaway.Kung Pao Chicken is from the Sichuan province in China.
For the hot sauce you MUST use Sriracha Hot Chili Sauce (Rooster Sauce).My chicken was sticky, sweet and spicy just the way it was supposed to be.Traditionally, Chinese chefs wrap the chicken with lotus leaves and sear it in clay, then bake it for a few hours.Lotus leaves add a special fragrance to the chicken and the clay sears all the flavors and juices into the meat.This recipe is an easy version of beggar's chicken and it doesn't require clay or lotus leaves.
