Home-cooked Kung Pao Chicken
By NealShields
Logically speaking, Kung Pao Chicken Dice should be composed of diced chicken, peanuts, and dried peppers. As everyone knows, I have never been a person who follows the rules, so our ingredients and seasonings have been slightly changed today, but I can guarantee that it tastes great.

Postscript: Using chicken leg meat has the lowest failure rate. It is very tender. Since oyster sauce is used, there is no need to thicken the sauce; the juices will be very thick. Use high heat throughout the entire process. Because I have been suffering from internal heat recently, I did not add dried chili peppers today, but as mentioned in the steps, you can add them to taste. Reference quantities: Three chicken legs, one tablespoon light soy sauce, one tablespoon oyster sauce, one teaspoon salt, one tablespoon fragrant vinegar, one tablespoon cooking wine.
