About This Recipe
This spicy Sichuan-style stir-fried squid is a bold and flavorful dish that brings heat, aroma, and tender seafood together in one irresistible bite. Fresh squid is blanched for perfect tenderness, then wok-tossed with dried chilies, fragrant Sichuan pepper, ginger, and garlic for a mouthwatering aroma. Crisp onions and vibrant green and red bell peppers add sweetness and crunch, while a savory-sweet sauce of soy sauce, vinegar, and sugar balances the dish. Quick and easy to prepare, this fiery stir-fry delivers the signature mala (numbing-spicy) kick of Sichuan cuisine, making it a standout meal for spice lovers. Serve it hot over steamed rice for a satisfying, restaurant-quality dish at home!
