Sichuan Bang Bang Chicken - Marion's Kitchen

My version of 'Bang Bang Chicken' comes from the authentic Sichuan dish rather than the deep fried versions of this dish you see in around the place. This one uses my homemade chili oil recipe that I know loads of you have tried! I've got a whole series of on how to make chili oil and then a playlist of all the recipes you can use it in. Be sure to check it out!

My cousin posted this video on fb. By the time the video ended I had looked up the recipe, had my list of ingredients in hand, and off to the store I went. Such a beautiful, fresh, and spicy, make your mouth tingling numbness kick you in the face with flavor kind of yum. So if that's not the kind of yum for you then dont try this at home.
So good. Very happy to have been steered in your direction. ✌🏽❤

As much as I love the American fried version, I absolutely love Sichuan food. Not just for the spicy factor, but the bold amazing flavors. This recipe looks amazing. So much flavor. And I love that you use poached chicken so it’s extra juicy and soaks up all that amazing flavor.

I’ve made this 5 times since I discovered Marion last year. I take it to work for lunch the next day ( I’m a nurse). I find that you have to put more hot oil on it before you leave in the AM. One of my absolute Marion favorites. 😘 stay safe everyone and wear a mask 😷

Hi Marion thank you for your channel! I tried making this dish and i loved it so much that I re-made it for a whole week. The flavor is amazing ❤️❤️❤️

[grahamreinbott]

Definitely need to try this one Marion. I agree with Joyce, not enough days in the week to try all of them, but slowly getting through them. And enjoying every minute of it.

Made this for lunch with some plain instant noodles cooked in the leftover broth, absolutely delicious! Have always been a long time fan since your MasterChef days!

I'll have to buy some chicken to shred. I'm glad it's keto friendly without any substitutes. You've got so many flavorful inspirations for meals. Loving your channel.

Thanks on the chicken poaching technique...amazing. made mine but used cabbage in place of cucumber and ofcourse chilli oil from your resipes. Loooove it.

[mysticseraph]

I feel like you produced this recipe *just* for me. I know that's not the case, but it ticks all the boxes of yumminess, and the best part is: I think I can actually make this myself, too! Can't wait to try it

[roysam]

Hallo Marion, I have made some of your recipes. They are delicious and the others i must try also to. Thank you for all your recipes. Greetings from Holland.

[haseenachowdhury]

I loved this recipe it turned out so good ❤️ your chilli oil made a huge difference 🌶️. We love all your recipes.

[bumblebee]

Really lovely recipe. Loved it big time

[cinnamonapplegate]

Made this today and it's terrific! Somehow I was afraid it would be a bland dish but the flavors are TOTALLY kickin'! The poaching method works brilliantly and yes, the chicken is so tender. The sauce is extremely flavorful and tangy. Perfect dish for this hot Texas summer :-)

[ericalouise]

Wow absolutely wow . Love this video and how you got straight into the recipe. I came from one other video of same recipe. It took him 2mins talking to actually start the recipe . His video was probably 19 mins long and that skip button became my friend.
Have to say all your videos are quick and to the point love it. !!
Can the sauce and chicken be warm or does it have to be cold 🥶. Xxx

[mindybui]

I just made this for lunch. It's sooo good.

[cookingwithglen]

Nice! Definitely going to check out that chili 🌶 oil! Thanks Marion!!

[pgarwood]

I made this today and served it on a bed of mixed greens. My family’s remarks include:” this tastes healthy, but not in a good way”
“The chicken is boring, the sauce is spicy”
“I wouldn’t make this again”
I’m glad I tried this. The name is a bit more exciting then the dish. I liked being able to use my homemade chili oil.
