CREAMY PEANUT CHICKEN
I was given this by one of our company's interstate sales managers, and I think it's great! Much lower in calories than other peanut chickens I've seen, and the spiciness of the curry paste perfectly balances out the sweetness of the peanut butter. Mild enough for kids to enjoy, plenty of flavour for the adults! Hope you try this and enjoy!

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).

This recipe may seem to have many components, but let me tell you: it's so worth it! The crunchy peanut-coated chicken gets a hint of spiciness from the hot pepper jelly. Paired with a tangy, cool vegetable salad to tame the heat, it's a match made in heaven.

Steps:
- For the buttermilk marinade: Stir together the buttermilk, soy sauce, ginger and garlic powder in a bowl. Pound the chicken to an equal thickness (no thicker than 1 inch; this helps it cook evenly.) Place the chicken in a zip-top bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, and turn to coat. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate at least 2 hours or up to overnight.
- Make the pickled carrot-cucumber salad: Stir together the sugar, vinegar, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Add the carrots, cucumbers, radishes and green onions, and toss to coat. Refrigerate until ready to serve. (The flavors will improve with standing time.)
- For the peanut-crusted chicken: Pour enough oil into a Dutch oven to reach 3 inches up the sides. Heat the oil to 325 degrees F.
- Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade. Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper. Stir together the flour, garlic powder and ginger in a shallow dish. Lightly beat the eggs in a separate shallow dish. Combine the panko and peanuts in a third shallow dish. Dredge the chicken in the flour mixture, shaking off the excess. Dip the chicken in the egg, then in the panko mixture, pressing to adhere.
- Fry the chicken in 2 batches, turning occasionally, until browned and crispy and the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165 degrees F, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove to a wire rack to drain. Drizzle with the pepper jelly.
- To serve, spread the peanut sauce on the buns. Place a piece of chicken on each bun bottom. Top with the pickled carrot-cucumber salad, cilantro and bun tops. Serve immediately.

Tips for a Perfect Creamy Peanut Stir-Fried Chicken:
- Select boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts for a tender and juicy texture. Cut them into bite-sized pieces for even cooking. - To achieve a crispy chicken coating, use a combination of cornstarch and all-purpose flour. The cornstarch helps create a golden-brown crust, while the all-purpose flour adds structure. - For a flavorful marinade, combine soy sauce, oyster sauce, Chinese rice wine or dry sherry, sesame oil, sugar, and ground white pepper. This mixture tenderizes the chicken and infuses it with Asian flavors. - For a creamy peanut sauce, use creamy peanut butter, soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger. Adjust the consistency of the sauce by adding more water or peanut butter as needed. - When stir-frying the chicken, use a well-seasoned wok or large skillet over high heat. Sear the chicken in batches, working in portions to prevent overcrowding and ensure even cooking. - Once the chicken is cooked through, add the creamy peanut sauce and stir-fry until the chicken is evenly coated and the sauce is heated through. - Serve the creamy peanut stir-fried chicken immediately over steamed rice or noodles. Garnish with chopped peanuts, scallions, and cilantro for added flavor and color.Conclusion:
With its crispy chicken, creamy peanut sauce, and vibrant flavors, this creamy peanut stir-fried chicken is a delicious and satisfying dish. The recipe is easy to follow and can be tailored to your taste preferences. Whether you're a seasoned cook or a beginner in the kitchen, this dish is sure to impress your family and friends. Enjoy this delectable Asian-inspired meal that combines the richness of peanut sauce with the savory taste of stir-fried chicken.
