KUNG PAO CHICKEN WITH CASHEWS
I have been looking for this recipe for years, and finally found it. I am posting it here for safe keeping. If it is as good as I remember, it will be a five-star recipe. I made this last night, and it was good. My changes are in parenthesis. I would definitely add the hoisin sauce for a little sweetness.

KUNG PAO CHICKEN
Not all stir-fries use high heat; this Szechuan-inspired recipe calls for more of a steam-sauté in a covered pan to keep the chicken breast meat from becoming stringy as you cook this 45-minute chicken and peanuts entrée. It has a kick from charred dried chiles, the tingle of Sichuan peppercorns, and a light coating of a subtle sweet-sour sauce.

Steps:
- Heat a large cast-iron or non-stick skillet or wok over medium. Add peanuts and 1 tablespoon vegetable oil; cook, stirring occasionally, until fragrant and golden brown in places, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
- In a bowl, whisk together 3 tablespoons soy sauce, cornstarch, and rice wine. Stir in chicken; let stand 5 minutes. Meanwhile, combine black vinegar, remaining 2 tablespoons soy sauce, sesame oil, and brown sugar in a small bowl, stirring until sugar is dissolved.
- Heat remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in skillet over medium-high. Add peppercorns and chiles; cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant and chiles are blistering in places, about 1 minute. Stir in garlic; cook 30 seconds. Stir in chicken mixture, spreading in an even layer to edges of skillet. Cover, reduce heat to medium, and cook, undisturbed, until chicken is beginning to turn golden on bottoms but is not cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Stir in vinegar-soy mixture and celery. Increase heat to medium-high and cook, uncovered, stirring frequently, until chicken is just cooked through and liquid thickens enough to become glossy and evenly coat, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat, stir in toasted peanuts and scallions, and serve with rice.
KUNG PAO CHICKEN
Spicy chicken with peanuts, similar to what is served in Chinese restaurants. It is easy to make, and you can be as sloppy with the measurements as you want. They reduce to a nice, thick sauce. Substitute cashews for peanuts, or bamboo shoots for the water chestnuts. You can't go wrong! Enjoy!
