Ingredients

  • ½ onion
  • 1 red pepper
  • 400g boneless chicken thighs
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 1 bird’s-eye chilli
  • 1 spring onion
  • 2 teaspoons Sichuan peppercorns
  • 10 dried red chillies
  • 200g cashew nuts
  • 1½ tablespoons vegetable oil

The Marinade

  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 2 teaspoons granulated sugar
  • a large pinch of Chinese five-spice
  • 3 tablespoons light soy sauce
  • 1½ tablespoons cornflour

The Sauce

  • 2 teaspoons chilli paste or chilli bean paste
  • 2 tablespoons light soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
  • 3 tablespoons rice wine

Method

1. Slice the onion and red pepper into fine matchsticks and the chicken into 3cm-wide strips. Put the chicken into a small mixing bowl, add the marinade ingredients and, using your hands, massage the pieces until they are evenly coated.

2. Finely chop the garlic and bird’s-eye chilli, and finely slice your spring onion. Crush the Sichuan peppercorns with a mortar and pestle. Mix all the sauce ingredients together in a small bowl or ramekin.

BUILD YOUR WOK CLOCK: place your sliced onion at 12 o’clock, then arrange the peppers, dried chillies, chicken bowl, crushed peppercorns, garlic, bird’s-eye chilli, sauce bowl, cashew nuts and spring onions clockwise around your plate.
