Kung Pao Chicken

Kung Pao Chicken

Overview

The most homely Kung Pao Chicken is another most popular dish. I learned this recipe a few years ago when I participated in an offline event held by Sohu Food and Drink at the Beijing International Hotel. I made slight changes, such as not using spicy peanuts but slightly cooking the peanuts in the microwave. In the past few years, it has become one of the recipes that my children often order on weekends.
