Salt and Pepper Crispy Chicken is such a classic Chinese dish. My parents used to make this a lot at home when I was a child. Even today, I miss their version of the dish. Salt and Pepper is the perfect seasoning combo that I have used in many of my recipes. The flavor and the aroma opens up your appetite, lingering around your tongue. Moreover, the Chicken tastes crispy outside and juicy inside. Every bite is sensational. And trust me, the recipe is so simple and easy to make. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

As mentioned, I have several recipes that are made with Salt and Pepper. If you are vegetarian, you can try out my Salt and Pepper Crispy Tofu<\/a>. If you love Shrimp, you have to try this Salt and Pepper Crispy Shrimp<\/a>. For a fried rice version, my Salt and Pepper Shrimp Fried Rice<\/a> is another level of yumminess. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

SALT AND PEPPER MIX<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

For the Salt and Pepper mix, I use both Sichuan Peppercorns and Black Peppercorns for the best possible aroma and taste. For the Salt, you should always use Sea Salt and not regular salt. If you can, I recommend to make the Salt and Pepper mix from scratch instead of buying it from the store. It is really quick and easy to make at home. You will be so glad if you have tried it yourself. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

HOW TO MAKE THIS SALT AND PEPPER CRISPY CHICKEN<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n
<\/path><\/svg><\/span>1. Marinate the Chicken<\/strong> – In a large mixing bowl, mix together Chicken, Light Soy Sauce, Chinese Cooking Wine, and Garlic. Set aside to marinate for 10-15 minutes.<\/span><\/div>\n\n\n\n
<\/path><\/svg><\/span>2. Prepare the Salt and Pepper mix<\/strong> – In a frying pan, toast Sichuan Peppercorns and Black Peppercorns on medium heat for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Then use a mortar and pestle to grind into fine powder. Transfer to a bowl. Add in Sea Salt (not regular salt). Mix well. Salt and Pepper mix is ready.<\/span><\/div>\n\n\n\n
<\/path><\/svg><\/span>3. Coat the Chicken<\/strong> – In another large bowl, add in Cornstarch and Baking Powder. Mix well. Add in the Chicken and marinade. Use your hands to mix well the Chicken pieces and Cornstarch. Shake off extra starch.<\/span><\/div>\n\n\n\n
<\/path><\/svg><\/span>4. Fry the Chicken <\/strong>– In a wok, on high heat, add in enough oil for the Chicken to float. Use a wooden chopstick to check the temperature of the oil. When there are small bubbles coming up quickly, the oil is ready. Add the Chicken pieces into the hot oil one at a time. Fry in batches. Do not overcrowd the pan. Cook for 3-4 minutes until golden and cooked through. Drain on paper towel or a wire rack.<\/span><\/div>\n\n\n\n
<\/path><\/svg><\/span>5. Cook the Vegetables <\/strong>– In a clean wok, add in 2 tbsp of Vegetable Oil on medium-high heat. Add in Garlic and stir fry about 15 seconds until fragrant. Then add in the Onions. Stir for about 2 minutes until the Onions are a bit softened. Add in the Red Thai Chilies and Green Onions. Keep stirring. Then add in about 1 tsp of Salt and Pepper mix. Stir well.<\/span><\/div>\n\n\n\n
<\/path><\/svg><\/span>6. Assemble the dish<\/strong> – Add in all the fried Chicken pieces. Combine well. Add in more Salt and Pepper mix. Give it a taste to adjust to your preference.<\/span><\/div>\n\n\n\n
<\/path><\/svg><\/span>7. Ready to serve <\/strong>– Transfer to serving plate. Garnish with extra Green Onions and Salt and Pepper mix. Ready to serve! <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Haini’s Tips<\/h2><\/div>
<\/div>

1. Do not use regular Salt when making the Salt and Pepper Mix. Always use Sea Salt.
2. It is important to fry the Chicken in batches. Do not overcrowd the pan.
3. Take a close look at the Chicken when frying, especially when the color changes. You don\u2019t want to burn them so much.
4. You can also use Chicken breast for this recipe. But I highly recommend to use the dark meat part of the Chicken, such as legs and thighs.
