Three Cup Chicken

This Spicy Garlic Chicken Stir-Fry is a bold and flavorful dish that brings together tender chicken pieces with a punch of garlic, chili, and aromatic spices. The chicken is first soaked to ensure cleanliness, then stir-fried to perfection with ginger, garlic, and chili strips for a fragrant base. A rich blend of soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, and savory bean paste creates a deeply umami sauce that coats each bite. The dish is simmered until the sauce thickens, locking in the bold flavors. Optional scallions add freshness, but this version keeps it simple for those who prefer a pure, spicy kick. Quick to prepare yet packed with complex tastes, this stir-fry is perfect for a weeknight dinner that doesn’t compromise on excitement. Serve it hot over rice for a satisfying meal that’s sure to impress!
