Yeo Kyung-rae's Gongbao Chicken

Cooking tips 💡

• Pounding the chicken with the back of a knife before cooking helps break down tough tendons, resulting in a much more tender texture.
• Since the sauce contains cornstarch, always stir it again just before pouring into the pan to prevent settling and clumping.
• The chicken must be fully cooked in oil before adding to the sauce to preserve juices and maintain a crispy exterior with tender interior.
• Substitute peanuts with cashews to make Cashew Gongbao Chicken — choose your preference at the final stir-fry stage.
