Chinese Chicken With Peanuts Recipes

Steps:

• In a bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, wine, vinegar, sugar, and sesame oil. Dice the chicken and toss it in the marinade.
• Heat a wok or skillet over high heat until very hot. Add the oil. Lightly fry the peanuts for about 1 minute and remove. Add the scallions, red peppers, and garlic. Stir-fry for about 20 seconds.
• Just before adding to the pan, coat the chicken in the cornstarch. Fry until the chicken is just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes (depending on the pan and the heat). Return the peanuts to the pan and mix thoroughly to combine with the chicken. Serve immediately with white rice.

Steps:

• Whisk together the vinegar, peanut butter, ginger, chipotle pepper puree, soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, and canola oil in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Combine cabbage, lettuce, carrots, snow peas, cilantro, and green onion in a large bowl. Add the dressing and toss to combine.
• Transfer to a serving platter and top with the shredded chicken, chopped peanuts, and mint. Drizzle with chili oil, if desired. Garnish with grilled lime halves.

Steps:

• Peanut sauce:
• Combine all the ingredients in food processor and mix until well blended. Set aside.
• Marinade:
• Mix all the ingredients, except the pineapple, together in a bowl, then add the pineapple slices. Let sit for a minimum of 30 minutes. This can also be made a day ahead and refrigerated.
• Preheat the grill to medium and grill each side of the pineapple until they have deep brown grill marks. Remove and slice into desired bite-size pieces. Set aside.
• Dough:
• Preheat the grill and the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Mix the yeast, water and sugar together in a small bowl until the yeast dissolves into a smooth, beige color. Let stand for 5 minutes.
• Using a stand mixer, add the flours, salt, cornmeal, sesame seeds, and orange zest, and mix with dough hook. Add the yeasted water and mix for 30 seconds. Add the sesame oil, ginger and garlic. If the dough is too dry, add drops of water until it becomes moist. Place dough in oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let rise for 30 minutes.
• When ready to roll out, cut the dough into 2 pieces and roll out each piece to desired thickness.
• This will give you 2 individual pizzas or you can choose to do one. Put the dough on a preheated pizza stone, if using an oven or a mesh grilling tray, if using a grill. Depending on the thickness of the crust, it will take approximately 10 minutes for thin pizza and 15 to 20 minutes for thicker pizza.
• Chicken:
• Preheat the grill to medium.
• Cut each chicken breast in half to make thinner cutlets. Season with oil, and salt and pepper, to taste.
• Grill for about 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Remove from the grill to a cutting board and cut into bite-size pieces, either long strips or chunks. Cover loosely with foil. Set aside.
• Assembly:
• Arrange the grilled chicken, grilled pineapple, red pepper, avocado, cilantro on top of the dough. Drizzle with Peanut sauce, slice and serve.

Steps:

• Cut chicken as evenly as possible into half-inch strips, then cut strips into small cubes. Place in a small bowl. Add marinade ingredients and 1 tablespoon water to bowl. Mix well and set aside.
• Peel and thinly slice garlic and ginger. Chop spring onions into chunks as long as their diameter (to match the chicken cubes). Snip chiles in half or into sections, discarding their seeds.
• In a small bowl, combine the sauce ingredients.
• Heat a seasoned wok over a high flame. Add oil, chiles and Sichuan pepper and stir-fry briefly until chiles are darkening but not burned. (Remove wok from heat if necessary to prevent overheating.)
• Quickly add chicken and stir-fry over a high flame, stirring constantly. As soon as chicken cubes have separated, add ginger, garlic and spring onions and continue to stir-fry until they are fragrant and meat is just cooked through (test one of the larger pieces to make sure).
• Give sauce a stir and add to wok, continuing to stir and toss. As soon as the sauce has become thick and shiny, add the peanuts, stir them in and serve.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the first five ingredients; set aside. In a large skillet, saute the chicken, garlic and ginger in oil for 5 minutes. Add peanut butter mixture. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes or until chicken juices run clear, stirring frequently., Serve with rice; sprinkle with green onions if desired.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a wok over medium heat. Place chicken in the wok, and cook until juices run clear. Mix in red bell pepper, and continue cooking until tender.
• In a bowl, mix the broth, soy sauce, sugar, garlic, cayenne pepper, ginger, and cornstarch. Pour into the wok. Toss green onions and cilantro into wok (reserving some of each for garnish). Continue to cook and stir 5 minutes, until slightly thickened. Mix in peanuts, and garnish with reserved green onions and cilantro to serve.

Steps:

• Fry garlic and ginger on medium-high heat until beginning to brown. Add green onion and let fry for half a minute.
• Add chicken cubes and turn up the heat to high, stir-frying until opaque.
• Turn heat back down to medium. Toss in peanuts and soybean paste, stirring to coat.
• Sprinkle sugar over the mixture and stir for a minute or two longer.
• Serve with rice.
• *If your peanuts are not roasted, put them in an oven preheated at 350 for 15-20 minutes. Stir once before done. Take them out before completely roasted because they continue to cook once out of the oven.

Steps:

• Mix first 4 ingredients until blended; pour over chicken in shallow dish. Turn to even coat both sides of chicken. Refrigerate 30 min. to marinate.
• Heat grill to medium-high heat. Remove chicken from marinade; discard marinade. Grill chicken 5 to 6 min. on each side or until done (165ºF). Transfer to large bowl.
• Mix chili sauce and hoisin sauce until blended. Add chicken; toss to evenly coat.
• Place chicken on platter; top with remaining ingredients.

Steps:

• Cut chicken meat from bone. Peel off skin and discard. Cut meat into dice a little larger than the peanuts. Split scallion lengthwise and cut into 1"-long sections. Cut garlic into slivers. Mix chicken with salt, 1 teaspoon soy sauce and 1 tablespoon cornstarch. In a small bowl mix the remaining soy sauce and cornstarch, monosodium glutamate, sugar, vinegar, sherry, scallion, garlic, ginger and sesame seed oil. Heat oil in frying pan. Add peanuts and stir until golden. Add first hot pepper flakes, then chicken. Ch'ao 1 minute. Stir the mixture in a small bowl until smooth. Add to the chicken and ch'ao just until sauce thickens and coats the chicken.

Steps:

• Mix together the wine, cornflour and half the soy sauce in a large bowl, then tip in the chicken pieces and toss to coat. You can do this up to a day ahead and keep covered and chilled until needed. Heat half the oil in a wok over a high heat and fry the chicken for 4-5 mins, stirring occasionally, until golden on all sides. Scoop out onto a plate.
• Heat the rest of the oil in the same wok and fry the peppers and spring onion whites for 1 min. Add the garlic, ginger and chilli, and stir-fry for another minute. Add the sugar, vinegar and the remaining soy. Let everything sizzle for 30 seconds, then tip the chicken and any juices into the wok along with the nuts. Stir-fry for another 1-2 mins until the chicken is cooked through. Stir through the spring onion greens and serve with rice or toss through some cooked noodles, if you like.
