10 Minute Szechuan Chicken

Recipe #57203 | 35 min | 15 min prep | add private note

This is a very simple recipe that produces stunning results. Szechuan cooking is usually pretty spicy, but this recipe is surprisingly mild. I like to jack it up a bit with some hot sauce, but my family doesn't like spicy food, so I do my own at the table.

I'm so excited to be making these dishes for my husband - he loves Chinese and I hate paying for it! I doubled the sauce and added 1 1/2 tsp. of freshly ground crushed red pepper and 5 asian red peppers. I sprinkled with roasted peanuts at the end and it became our own Princess Chicken. My dh claimed the heat was "spot on"! Thank you so much for a great addition to our Chinese menu.

    Very good chicken, I loved how fast and easy it was for such a great meal and it went beautifully with the rice. Thanks.

    We really enjoyed this, and it is very easy. I left out the carrot & zucchini and added baby corn and straw mushrooms. I also doubled the sauce (due to the extra veggies). I will make this again for sure.

    I made as directed except used lite soy sauce and cooked it for longer. Took awhile to get together, but cooked up in a snap. The vinegar flavor was definitely there, so if you dont like vinegar much maybe cut that back or put in more sugar (I love vinegar, so it was fine by me!) Thanks!
