To make the Dan Dan Chicken Fusion, start by marinating the chicken in soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, and cornstarch for at least 30 minutes. Heat a wok or large skillet over high heat and add the vegetable oil. Add the chicken and stir-fry until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the sauce. Toast the Sichuan peppercorns in a dry skillet until fragrant, then grind them into a powder. In a small bowl, whisk together the chili oil, soy sauce, black vinegar, sugar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, and chicken broth. Add the ground Sichuan peppercorns and mix well.
Cook the noodles according to package instructions. Drain and rinse with cold water. In a large bowl, toss the noodles with vegetable oil, sesame oil, and soy sauce.
To serve, divide the noodles among four bowls. Top each bowl with the cooked chicken and spoon the sauce over the top. Garnish with chopped scallions and cilantro, if desired.
This Dan Dan Chicken Fusion dish is a perfect combination of spicy, savory, and sweet flavors. The chicken is tender and juicy, while the sauce is rich and flavorful. The noodles add a nice texture and help balance out the heat from the sauce. This dish is sure to be a hit with anyone who loves bold and delicious flavors.
