Directions
Tips:
- The key to this dish is to make chicken tender. Stir-fry over high heat to make sure chicken meat is tender inside and crispy outside.
- Do not overcook the peanut. Remove from heat once peanuts turn crispy. You would rather not to fry too long than burn the peanut. Peanut turns bitter when burnt.
- Practice made taste better. Even though it is a home recipe, not everyone can make as yummy as the top level. The cook with high-level cooking skills can make the meat crispy outside but tender inside.
