Decades Old Secret Recipe Dry Pot Chicken
This Sichuan-style stir-fried chicken is a bold, aromatic dish bursting with spicy and savory flavors. Tender young chicken is marinated with ginger, Sichuan peppercorns, and cooking wine for deep flavor, then stir-fried with fragrant spices like cinnamon, dried chilies, and garlic. The secret lies in the rich blend of lard and bean paste, which creates a glossy, umami-packed coating. Crisp green peppers add a fresh contrast to the tender chicken, while fiery dried chilies deliver a lingering heat. Cooked without water to intensify the taste, this dish is a perfect balance of spice, smokiness, and savoriness—ideal for those who love authentic Sichuan cuisine. Serve it hot for an unforgettable meal that’s both hearty and full of depth.
