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. 4 servings Ingredients: Rice, for serving 1 tsp. Sesame oil 2 tsp. Sambal oelek 1 tsp. Cornstarch 1/4 cup Low-sodium soy sauce 2 tbsp. Sherry 4-6 Dried chilis 1 Red bell pepper, chopped 1 Large head broccoli, cut into small florets 1 Sliced piece ginger, minced 4 Boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1" pieces 3 tbsp. Canola oil, divided
