Szechuan chicken

serves 4

Ingredients:

* 500g boiled chicken breasts in cubes
* 1 teaspoon salt
* 1 red paprika in slices
* 1 green paprika in slices
* 1,5 spoon of cornstarch
* 1 protein
* 2 thin slices of ginger, or  1,5 spoon of gingerpowder
* 2 small dried chillies, chopped
* 2 (Spanish) chillies in rings
* 2 spoons of soy sauce
* 2 spoons of vinegar

Additional:

* 1 onion in slices
* 1 or 2 cloves of garlic, chopped

Preparations:

Boil the chicken and cut in cubes. Meanwhile make a marinade of the salt, protein, cornstarch and one spoon of oil. Mix well, and then add the chicken. Make sure every piece of chicken is covered in the marinade. Leave alone for atleast one hour.

Chop the ginger if you are using fresh ones. If you are chopping the chillies, you can decide if you leave the seeds or not, depending if you like it hot or medium. Heat up a wok and stir-fry the chillies with the ginger(powder) for one minute. Add the chicken and stir-fry. It is important that you keep stirring! Add the paprika and stir fry for about one minute more. Now add the soy sauce and the vinegar, and stir-fry until you are satisfied. Serve with noodles or with rice. It's not a bad idea to add the mix on a sandwich either, but as you can see I used noodles for it. In any case, good apetite and see you next time!

Yours truly,
