Peanut Chicken Broccoli Stir Fry

This is our absolute favorite recipe so far, we've cooked it up many times, nearly once a week, while in Kyoto, but it is a Chinese recipe! They don't actually do stir fries, or even have woks here in Japan. It is spicy though, so be warned!

Ingredients:

2T oil
0.5C peanuts
1t chili powder
2 cloves garlic, minced
2t ginger, minced
0.5C green and / or red peppers
0.5 bunch broccoli, chopped
1T soy sauce
1T sake
1T hot bean paste
1T rice vinegar
0.5t sugar
1T sesame oil

Marinade:

1lb chicken, cubed
2t sake
2t sesame oil
1t flour

Directions:

Make marinade and let chicken sit for at least 30 minutes. Heat oil in a wok and fry peanuts stirring constantly for about a minute, set aside. Combine chicken and chili powder in wok and cook until chicken is white. Add garlic, ginger, peppers, and broccoli and fry for 1 minute. Add remaining ingredients, mix well, and reduce sauce. Add peanuts and serve over rice. Enjoy!
