16 Reviews of 10 Minute Szechuan Chicken

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.

    Triple yummy! Mirj, the flavor was delicious!!! I used veg. broth instead of chicken and served it over polenta rounds. I ate all the vegetables! Thanks for a keeper!

    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!

    Mmmmm...Mirj! This was GREAT. This is my first experience with making my own Chinese food, and admittedly, I don't have a wok, but it still worked great in my pan. I did omit the zucchini because they, like cucumbers, are ludicrously expensive here for a vegetable that is mostly water and isn't big on flavor. Anyhow, back from my tangent- this was great, easy, quick and did I mention great?! BF and I served it over rice and sprinkled some sesame seeds over the top. I was a little wary when I first saw the recipe. You see, I am hot-food-aphobic and the Szechuan title had me worried for a moment, but I saw that there aren't any dragon chilies or anything nuts in here (or anything spicey, for that matter) and that you said it was mild... GREAT, GREAT, GREAT. I WILL be making this again. Fabulous last-minute meal.

    We figured,it takes 15 minutes to prep it, 20 to cook it, but we ate it in 10!!!!! This was so good, the only thing WE needed to change was breasts to thighs, just a personal preferance.

    Easy and tasty, a good combination. The prep does take longer than the cooking! The taste is mild and the presentation wonderful. Served this with rice. Thanks.

    5 plus stars!! This is wonderful! My husband really loved it and he doesn't like stir frys too much. The sauce was delicious! Thank you for sharing.

    This was really good. I added some red pepper flakes to make it spicier. It only took me 30 minutes to get this and some brown rice on the table. Quick, easy, and very tasty! Thanks for sharing!

    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.

    Excellent! A very easy recipe that you can easily spice up if you prefer. I made as posted except I forgot to add the carrots and after it was cooked, I added some generous splashes of tabasco sauce. I served with fried rice and there wasn't a bit left after dinner. Thanks so much for posting a keeper, Mirj!
