GONG BAO CHICKEN WITH PEANUTS
This dish is an adaptation of one brought to The Times by Fuschia Dunlop, the British journalist who's also an accomplished cook of Chinese cuisine. It is a pop classic with hot chiles, crunchy peanuts and plenty of garlic and ginger. "Everyone loves it, and it's complex enough to be interesting without being too complicated to make," Ms. Dunlop said. Dig in with a side of white rice and enjoy.

Steps:
- Cut chicken as evenly as possible into half-inch strips, then cut strips into small cubes. Place in a small bowl. Add marinade ingredients and 1 tablespoon water to bowl. Mix well and set aside.
- Peel and thinly slice garlic and ginger. Chop spring onions into chunks as long as their diameter (to match the chicken cubes). Snip chiles in half or into sections, discarding their seeds.
- In a small bowl, combine the sauce ingredients.
- Heat a seasoned wok over a high flame. Add oil, chiles and Sichuan pepper and stir-fry briefly until chiles are darkening but not burned. (Remove wok from heat if necessary to prevent overheating.)
- Quickly add chicken and stir-fry over a high flame, stirring constantly. As soon as chicken cubes have separated, add ginger, garlic and spring onions and continue to stir-fry until they are fragrant and meat is just cooked through (test one of the larger pieces to make sure).
- Give sauce a stir and add to wok, continuing to stir and toss. As soon as the sauce has become thick and shiny, add the peanuts, stir them in and serve.

SZECHUAN CHICKEN WITH PEANUTS
Extra hot dish from southwestern China. This is best served with the rice rather then over it. The dried red peppers is what makes this dish red hot. These thin finger like peppers are usually sold in cellophane bags in Oriental, Italian and Spanish sections of your grocery store or specialty supermarkets.

SZECHUAN-STYLE STIR FRY CHICKEN WITH PEANUTS
This recipe is out of Cooking Light magazine. It is very much like Kung Pao chicken. I have played with this recipe a lot. I like to add veggies and usually turn the heat level up a bit. This recipe is habit forming!

STIR-FRIED CHICKEN WITH PEANUTS
Serve this home-style version of kung pao chicken and peanuts with a side of steamed white rice. If you're feeding a large crowd, stir-fry an additional batch instead of making one large serving at once; overcrowding the pan won't allow the ingredients to cook properly.From the book "Mad Hungry," by Lucinda Scala Quinn (Artisan Books).

SZECHUAN CHICKEN WITH PEANUTS 6 WW PTS
I've made this several times and we really enjoy it. I believe it came from a Weight Watchers cookbook, but I can't quite remember. It has 6 WW points, if you are following that program. Even if you're not, it's great, and I think even better than what you'd get in a restaurant. My husband, who is definitely anti-diet food anything, really likes it.

SZECHUAN CHICKEN WITH CASHEW NUTS
Typically Chinese in origin, this dish has also been served as Thai and Singaporean fare in a lot of restaurants worldwide. A lot or recipes online produce a pale-looking and bland finished product. This recipe is restaurant-grade. The secret is the hoisin sauce, which adds seasoning and a certain degree of sweetness to the dish. There are two different varieties of chili peppers used- the traditional hot pepper, which introduces the spicy Schezuan character of the dish, and the long, dried, semi-spicy, semi-sweet pepper (sorry about the description, but do not confuse this with green pepper), which adds spice and some sweetness. The chicken is fried with the skin to add flavor, and is cooked independently . This retains the crunchiness of the chicken pieces even after cooking.
