Ingredients
Main Ingredients (2 servings)
- 1 Chicken Breast (approx. 300g)
- 1/2 Scallion
- Potato Starch (for dusting)
- Salt (to taste)
- Pepper (to taste)
Seasonings
- [A] Ketchup 3 tbsp
- [A] Minced Garlic 2 tsp
- [A] Grated Ginger 1 tsp
- [A] Chicken Stock Powder 1/2 tsp
- [A] Sugar 1 tsp
- [A] Cooking Sake (Rice Wine) 2 tbsp
- Doubanjiang (Chili Bean Paste) 2 tsp
Steps
- In a bowl, combine 3 tbsp Ketchup, 2 tsp Minced Garlic, 1 tsp Grated Ginger, 1/2 tsp Chicken Stock Powder, 1 tsp Sugar, and 2 tbsp Cooking Sake (Rice Wine). Mix well.
- Finely chop the scallion. Make slits in half a scallion, flip it over, and make slits on the other side. Thinly slicing will make it easy to achieve a fine chop.
- Cut the chicken breast. First, remove the skin from 1 chicken breast and cut it into bite-sized pieces.
- Sprinkle a pinch of Salt and a pinch of Pepper over the cut chicken breast, then coat thoroughly with Potato Starch, ensuring it's evenly distributed.
- Heat a frying pan over medium heat and add a generous amount of oil. Pan-fry the chicken breast, keeping some space between the pieces so they don't stick. Once browned on one side, flip and cook thoroughly through the center.
- Once cooked through, remove the chicken breast from the pan.
- In the same frying pan, add about 1 tbsp of oil and heat over low heat. Add 2 tsp Doubanjiang (Chili Bean Paste) and stir-fry over low heat to release its sweetness into the oil. (This is the key!) Stir-frying the doubanjiang first will completely change its aroma and sweetness.
- Once a pleasant aroma from the doubanjiang emerges, add the pre-mixed sauce and bring to a boil.
- Once the sauce is warmed through, add the pan-fried chicken breast and the finely chopped scallion, and toss to coat everything.
- Once the sauce has coated everything and looks delicious, it's ready to serve!
