Cooking tips

  • Sprinkling starch powder onto already cooked chicken and frying it briefly in oil creates a crispy texture similar to freshly fried food—without needing large amounts of frying oil.
  • The kung pao sauce is thick and contains sugar, so it can burn in just half a second over high heat; always use low heat to avoid failure.

Recommended for

  • Those who avoid making chicken dishes at home due to discomfort with flour-based batters or large quantities of oil.
  • Anyone craving a luxurious rice bowl featuring the tangy-sweet, sticky, spicy flavor of authentic Chinese-style kung pao sauce paired with tender chicken.
