We love spicy chicken and Hunan is no exception. If you want yours less spicy, lessen the number of chilis and sambal oelek. Hunan chicken is a stir-fried dish that is just coated in a dusting of cornstarch with a spicy chili paste sauce coating a mixture of vegetables. Szechuan Chicken is generally battered and fried before being added to a pan of stir-fried vegetables and coated in a much sweeter sauce than Hunan chicken.

Ingredients

  • Rice, for serving

  • 1 tsp. Sesame oil

  • 2 tsp. Sambal oelek

  • 1 Large head broccoli, cut into small florets

  • 1 Sliced piece ginger, minced
