How to Make Laziji, Sichuan Spicy Chicken (辣子鸡) | Chinese Cooking Demystified

Laziji, Sichuan Spicy Chicken. Boldly flavored, unapologetically spicy, and difficult to approach for the unsuspecting. We adore this dish, but love it or hate it... this is a dish that inspires extremes of emotion.

For this video we got our buddy Adam - owner of the bar/restaurant "Ron Mexico" in Beijing and one of the most passionate Laziji evangelists I know - to cook and narrate his version of the dish. This is the real deal recipe complete with chicken on the bone - with little pieces of bone and meat, cleaved into bite-sized pieces.

As always, the detailed recipe and ingredient list is here, on /r/cooking:

I read and speak some Chinese, and have been trying to religiously recreate the recipes of the most authentic versions of the food I've eaten and loved here.
