|
||
|
||
## Measurements
|
||
|
||
- Chicken legs = 2 pieces
|
||
- Shiitake mushrooms (dried shiitake mushrooms are best) = 5 pieces
|
||
- Green bell peppers = 2 pieces
|
||
- Ginger slices = 2 slices
|
||
- Dried chili peppers = 5 to 6 pieces
|
||
- Salt = 10g
|
||

|
||
- Soy sauce = 5ml
|
||
- Potatoes = 1 piece (optional, helps thicken the sauce)
|
||
|
||
## Instructions
|
||
|
||
### Preparation Phase
|
||
|
||
- Wash the chicken legs and cut them into chunks approximately **4cm** in size.
|
||
- Slice the ginger and cut the dried chili peppers into **small rings**.
|
||
- Slice the shiitake mushrooms and cut the green bell peppers into thin, **horseshoe-shaped** strips. If using dried shiitake mushrooms, wash off the dust, soak them overnight, and reserve the soaking water.
|
||
- If using potatoes, cut them into **irregular chunks** similar in size to the chicken pieces.
|
||
|
||
### Stir-frying Phase
|
||
|
||
- Make caramelized sugar: Pour a base layer of oil into the wok. Add the white sugar while the oil is still cold. (**This step has a certain level of difficulty; beginners can skip this and proceed to stir-frying the chicken, using dark soy sauce as a substitute for color.**)
|
||
- Heat over low heat. As the oil temperature rises, the white sugar will melt and turn a darker brown. Stir continuously during this process to prevent burning.
|
||
- Quickly add the chicken chunks, increase the heat to high, and stir-fry rapidly! Add the cooking wine and continue stir-frying for a moment.
|
||
- Add the ginger slices and dried chili peppers.
|
||
- Add the soy sauce and stir-fry until evenly mixed.
|
||
- Pour in the shiitake mushroom soaking water or clear water, ensuring the liquid is sufficient to cover the chicken.
|
||
- Add the sliced shiitake mushrooms, white pepper powder, salt, and potatoes.
|
||
- Stir-fry evenly, cover the pot, and simmer over medium-low heat for **15–20 minutes**. If available, transfer to a clay pot for better results.
|
||
- Once the chicken is tender and the sauce has thickened (do not reduce the sauce until it is completely dry), add the green bell peppers.
|
||
- Add the MSG, stir-fry briefly to mix, and turn off the heat. The green bell peppers should be just cooked through; do not overcook them.
