bang bang chicken
Spicy Sichuan fowl
Bang bang chicken is a Sichuan Chinese dish of shredded poached chicken in a spicy, nutty sauce made with sesame paste, chili oil, and Sichuan peppercorns.
The name comes from the wooden stick traditionally used to pound the chicken tender.
American versions often feature crispy fried chicken with a sweeter, less complex sauce.
