It is amazing how only a few ingredients can create so much flavor. My Korean Chicken & Vegetables is the perfect example.
Jump to RecipeThe dish is flavored with ginger, red pepper flakes, garlic and green onions. Now the dish is not exactly Korean because the red pepper flakes, are sichuan peppercorns. I have this big jar and need to find other ways to use them. The ginger, red peppercorns, garlic and green onions are sautéed in oil to get out the flavors.
The sauce in this dish is velvety. After the bell peppers are added and softened a little, shaoxing wine (or mirin) and chicken stock are added. The sauce is simmer to reduce and thicken it up. The dish is finished by adding the chicken back in and simmering for a few minutes.
Chicken is so versatile and takes on flavors so well. Some examples of unique flavors include:
