Gong Bao chicken was created by Ding Baozhen, governor of Shandong Province and governor of Sichuan Province in the Qing Dynasty. He has a good knowledge of cooking. He likes to eat chicken and peanuts, especially delicious and spicy. When he was an official in Shandong Province, he ordered his family chef to improve stir fried chicken with soy sauce for spicy stir fry. Later, when the governor of Sichuan was in office, he popularized the dish and created a delicious delicacy made of stir fried chicken, red pepper and peanuts. This delicious dish was originally a private dish of Ding's family, but later it became well known as kung pao chicken. The so-called palace protector is actually Ding Baozhen's honorary official rank. In his ten years of governing Shu, Ding Baozhen was upright.

Prince Taibao is one of Gongbao. So in order to commemorate Ding Baozhen, the dish he invented was named Gongbao chicken. Nowadays, this dish is not only loved by Chinese people, but also by foreigners. After eating, it is praised continuously.

Cooking tips:1. If this dish is made of chicken leg meat, it will be more tender and smooth. 2. Soak peanuts in boiling water for 10 minutes. When the skin is wrinkled, the skin can be easily removed. After removal, use kitchen paper towel to dry the water on the surface of peanuts. 3. When marinating chicken, do not put too much starch. Just wrap a thin layer on the surface of chicken. Too much will affect the shape of chicken. 4. In this dish, we don't need bean paste. I add a little Pixian bean paste, because it can make the whole dish more red and bright. But do not add too much. Just a little. And it should be chopped. 5. Onion. It's better to choose a smaller one. It's better to look better. 6. Make it at home. It's highly recommended to fry this dish in a nonstick pan. In this way, the shape of the chicken can be kept intact. 7. Finally put peanut kernel. The taste will be more crispy.
