For those who want to make an authentic Gong Bao Chicken, here's a recipe that you can follow. Start by marinating diced chicken thigh meat in a mixture of soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, and cornstarch. In a hot wok or skillet, stir-fry the marinated chicken until it is browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the wok and set it aside. In the same wok, stir-fry dried chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, and diced garlic until fragrant. Add diced ginger and stir-fry for a minute. Then, add the cooked chicken back to the wok, along with roasted peanuts and a sauce made from soy sauce, black vinegar, sugar, and chicken broth. Stir-fry everything together until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken. Garnish with sliced green onions and serve the Gong Bao Chicken hot with steamed rice or noodles. Enjoy the authentic flavors of this classic Sichuan dish!
