How to Make Black Pepper Chicken

[210482fmj]

i am seriously starting to cut back on fried food. I'm starting to do my stir frys with water now instead. It works

[TheTechnometal]

i know Chinese recipes r really good..yummy...but i strongly recommend indian & paki recipes for spicy n hottest chicken...btw u said "enjoy" very cute..

[Sunfadedlovejaded]

Is this very spicy?

[sabah100]

What can I replace for the oyster sauce?

[apple2731]

i love this recipe...

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

@apple2731 Thank you :)

[AintAnotherGuru]

is there any alternative for sherry?

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

@AintAnotherGuru You can use 1 tsp of rice vinegar mixed with 1 tsp of water to replace the sherry in this recipe :)

[oqs15]

@AsianCookingmadeEasy can i use regular vinegar instead of rice vinegar?

[boozer9071]

ohh u r so beautiful and very good at cook.

[LBDaycarecolumbus]

Thinking about making something like this tonight I will prolly follow the recipe but add another tsp of black pepper and a few jalapeno's and some shrimp.

[preciousteel]

Saw this video a month ago and just made it tonight...I LOVE THIS AND I LOVE YOU! This is one of my favorite asian cuisines and now I can make it whenever I want!!!! I also subscribed!!! I had to edit some of the ingredients (1/2 tsp of white pepper and 1 tsp of black paper instead of what the recipe called for) but it was spot on perfect!!!! I paired it with some yellow rice...yum! Ahhhh I can't wait to try other dishes on your channel!!!!!

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

@preciousteel Thank you so much for trying this and commenting! :)

[AintAnotherGuru]

@AsianCookingmadeEasy I want to cook this with one chicken instead of 3 as I've never cooked something like this before. Can you please tell me what will be the measurement of the ingredients for one chicken? Would be very helpful if you do that.

[travolta91]

talented cook!

:)

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

@travolta91 Thank you - I really appreciate this :)

[wondergalish]

You'd make a good wife.

[ahmedhaziq5199]

good



[ittybittyLOL]

I made this and it was pepper overkill. Too much pepper, I don't know what went wrong, I followed directions exactly.

[thangacchi]

Thank you! I'm going to make black pepper tofu tomorrow!! I'm going to try this using firm tofu cut into cubes and fried and then I'll follow the rest of your recipe. I'm so craving chinese food now. Thank you for the recipe!

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

@thangacchi That sounds like a great idea - let me know how it turns out - thank you :)

[bajeas]

whats garlic salt? and where can i find it? plz reply if anyone knows

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

@bajeas Hi - Garlic salt is a mix of garlic powder and salt - you can usually find it in the spice section of most local grocery stores :)

[bajeas]

@AsianCookingmadeEasy thanx

[Kushclouds420]

I would love to cook you a dinner!

[Randomificationnnn]

Can you replace the sherry with something else? o.o

[Vod77]

@Randomificationnnn yes, i'd like to know a substitute for sherry too, please?

[BoricuaMamii621]

i like this i am trying to break into other cultures dishes i am naturally hispanic and i've already mastered spanish cooking but it gets boring eating your own thing all the time i will definatley try this :)

[lchan90a]

This recipe is simple & genius! Thanks for sharing! =]

[BigandNasty4Life]

[bluerooster345]

oh my god i am obsessed with pepper chickernnnnnn!!!!

[jupiterscastle]

[FakePlasticShrimp]

i want to marry you.

[ChaChaDave]

Hi. This looks wonderful!

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

@ChaChaDave Thank you :)

[blackberryjuice1]

@AsianCookingmadeEasy How do you cook chicken without producing so much smoke? I tried grilling chicken in my dorm room today and security came to visit my room three times!!!

[qochemist]

I love black pepper chicken and black pepper shrimp... I imagine you can use this same recipe for both?

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

@qochemist Yes you can use this recipe for shrimp too - just make sure to cut the cooking time on the shrimp. You want to cook them just until they turn pink :)

[qochemist]

@AsianCookingmadeEasy - Yay!! thanks so much

[killjoy545]

@qochemist I think he meant that you look wonderful

[WPB626]

Can I Have That Bowl?

[syafira95]

what is sherry?

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

@syafira95 Sherry is a wine; in this recipe I use cooking sherry which can usually be found near the vinegar in most local grocery stores :)

[otakixus]

@AsianCookingmadeEasy I don't like using alcohol. Can we not use the Sherry? Or can we use a different ingredient to offset using Sherry?

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

@otakixus For this recipe you and just not use the sherry if you wish :)

[imalovedrunk]

i am going to try this looks yummy

you remind me of TOMMY COOPER

he used to say just like that all the time lol

[CatastrophicLlama]

ya mum

[meatisdeliciouse]

WOW, someone finaly made a dish with NO coriander in it, HURAHHH. Ill just leave the pepper out and make it myself, black pepper makes me itchy and cough and sneze, ick it's to spicy for me, my throught is sor right now from it, oooh : (

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

@remand You don't have to use the garlic salt; and you can certainly experiment with different seasonings and tailor this to your tastes :)

[mrjonsettles]

are you using the wok outside or something?

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

@mrjonsettles Yes, I do most of my frying outside to prevent making such a mess inside :)

[cutthroatnukka]

go head!

[vladaksana]

Is there anything else that I can use instead of the oyster sauce? is there some alternative?

[willyham72]

just made this pepperd chicken for my tea and it was ace iv been cooking for a couple of years now and this was about as good a meal as iv made highly recomended to any1 ...thankyou lela ya wee baby xx

[willyham72]

me and my son are having this today for tea so fingers crossed

[sokundara]

hi, instead of sherry wine can I use shaoxine vwine sorry i cannot spell it. Thank u

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

@sokundara Yes, that would work great :)

[xAznxAngelx]

this looks delicious! can i use regular onions instead of green onion? Mirin instead of Sherry wine?

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

@xAznxAngelx The regular onions will give it a bit of a different flavor and texture, but I think it will be good. And the Mirin would work fine as well :)

[atchoy2]

tnx madam it help a lot. uhmmm i want to make a pork steamed rice. i really love the way you make ur food:D tnx madam

[atchoy2]

thnx a lot madam well i just want to learn how to make a steamed rice make my gf a surprise food:D tnx madam

[atchoy2]

can i ask something what is sherry is that an oil??? im just curious 

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

@atchoy2 Sherry is a wine - here I use cooking sherry which can usually be found in most local grocery stores. You can also use a regular sherry you would drink as well :)

[nikthemaverick]

good recipe....i could'nt get the oyster sauce though....may be il try substituting with a little fish sauce

[umm23h]

I made this recipe for my family, and they loved it! It's become a regular in my rotation of recipes as my family requests it often! Also, I had a hard time finding the thick soy sauce, which struck me as strange because I live in Hawaii and usually have no problems finding ingredients for Asian dishes. After browsing the comments, I read where it could be substituted with one part (regular) soy sauce and one part molasses. Worked perfectly! Thank you so much for uploading this video!

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

@umm23h Thank you! I'm so glad you like it. Thank you for posting and trying my recipes :)

[maplepoon]

I've never heard of thick soy sauce before! Even my mom never used it before!

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

@maplepoon It's basically the same as dark soy sauce but a little thicker :)

[321AUDIO]

nice work looks good very good

[kekecatty]

Looks greattttttttttttt! you think I can use pork in this recipe?

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

@kekecatty Yes you can use pork in this. Just cut the cooking time a bit so that it does not over cook :)

[alfonso2501]

Question. Why both white & black pepper?

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

@alfonso2501 In my opinion, white pepper has a nice warming flavor that black pepper lacks. I use it sometimes just to gives a dish an extra umh :)

[jaime0075]

love it!!!!

[bebelaureful]

looks gorgeous and appetising.would love to try this

[AceTravis33]

Finally got around to making this today and used the 1 part molasses, 1 part normal soy instead of the thick soy sauce like you recommended. This was probably the best dish I have ever made. No joke. So yummy. Thanks again for the recipe! :).. One question though : Why didn't my chicken brown like yours in the wok? Was it because I used a different oil other than peanut oil?

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

@AceTravis33 I don't think this was b/c of the different oil. There may be several reasons why it didn't brown. It may be because the oil was not completely hot when the chicken was added, or perhaps the size of your wok. If it is a small wok you may need to cook this in batches. Also, when cooking the chicken you want to let it sit for 2 minutes (it may take a bit longer depending on your heat source and wok) on each side to let it brown instead of constantly stirring. I hope this helps :)

[shreeree]

@AceTravis33 Its because you subsituted the thick soy. If you can't find it ,subsitute with hoison sauce not normal soy sauce and won't need mollasses..

[AceTravis33]

I can't find the thick soy sauce anywhere! Please help !!

[henrymarcellus]

@AceTravis33 asian grocery store. we just bought one. the brand we bought is called koon chun.

[CIROBARRIO18]

hi there i was wondering where can i buy that black pan

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

@CIROBARRIO18 It's a Joyce Chen non stick wok.  I've had it forever and don't remember where I bought it; but I know you can order them online :)

[Sweetheartbabez]

omg that looks soo good!!!! lol

[ProudFinn1]

Looks very appetizing. your kitchen is very nice

[sheba82377]

this is one of my favorite dishes @ the Chinese buffet.....now I can make it @ home thanks!

[c88a89]

Thank you so much.. i just finished eating ..

it was amazing..

I personally love spicy food so i added chili paste to it..wow.. the pepper and chili paste makes it explosive.. :P

thank you so much.. u inspire me to try different dishes..

[xchevygurlx]

I made this last week and it turned out great! :)

[yuki9622002]

I make this dish for dinner today. I doesn't have garlic salt at home, but i substitute it with fresh minced garlic and salt. The tatse of this dish is so delicious until my husband said it's like outside stall dish....lol. Thank you for sharing this video lela

[BLAHmary]

uhmm, i was wondering if i can substitute anything else for the thick soy sauce? :o and the sherry vinegar? or is that gonna do damage to the recipe?

[Adveloq]

Tbh, sherry is awesome in cooking.

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

For the thick soy you can use about 1 tsp reg soy sauce mixed with 1 tsp of molasses. And the sherry is actually a cooking wine. You can use either shao hsing wine or another dry white wine if you wish :)

[ljeonful]

I was wondering if you can steam it, not fry.

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

Yes, although I've never done it with this recipe - I think it would be delicious and healthy :)

[asadirfan]

thank you leela

so now i will going to make this dish

lets c how is come out

[asadirfan]

hello ,leela

can u know me plz

wat is sherry

and where i can buy this

may be a asian grocery

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

Sherry is a cooking wine an can usually be found near the vinegar section of your local grocery store. If you can't find it you can also use shao hsing cooking wine which can be found in most oriental grocery stores :)

[dadkun]

some sesame seeds would totally complete that. 5*

[jessibarrera]

can I substitute chicken with steak? similar to pepper steak? thanks!

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

Yes, steak would work with this also. Just slice it into thin pieces, and cook it like the chicken, but not as long - just until it's a little pink in the center :)

[chadsexinton]

no you cant. thats illegal.

of course you can.

[sesame297]

just to confirm , can we add some water cos I find the dish too salty.

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

I wouldn't add water to this dish, but you can replace the garlic salt in the marinade with garlic powder, and then use a low sodium oyster sauce for the sauce :)

[adjustedmidget]

what can i use instead of oyster sauce?

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

Oyster sauce actually gives this dish most of it's flavor. They do make a vegetarian version of oyster sauce which is made with mushrooms instead of oysters. This sauce would work as well :)

[xXsquishy420Xx]

that looks soo good but i waas goin to make this for my friends andone of them is ilergic to nuts can u suggest something different i could use?

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

You can simply use vegetable oil instead of the peanut oil :)

[sesame297]

how long must I marinate the chicken?

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

You can just let the chicken sit for about 10 to 15 min while the other ingredients are being prepared :)

[sesame297]

Is sherry a kind of wine?

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

Yes sherry is a wine and for my recipes I use "Cooking Sherry," which can usually be found in the vinegar section of most local grocery stores :)

[upinflamezzz]

There is only one Asian restaurant that cooks this by me I have to drive 15 miles to get there, but it tastes so good. One thing I noticed though is that they use a larger black pepper seed, which give it a a better kick. Maybe it's peppercorn, I don't know.

[seefernz]

What's brand of the dark thick soy did you use for this recipe?

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

I used the Koon Chun brand :)

[bgaviator]

Made this recipe tonight. Flavor is spot on! However, I will be toning down the amount of pepper for my family's taste. The current amount will definitly wake you up! Maybe 1/2 the amount of white and black pepper.

[natpaige007]

Great video and I love your kitchen! LOL. I have a question, is oyster sauce required? What's a substitute if I don't wish to use it?

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

The oyster sauce in this recipe does provide the main flavor. You could try using about 2tbsp hoisin mixed with about 1 tbsp of regular soy sauce. The flavor will be different, but still good :)

[tonyhuang619]

i wish my mom could cook this many varieties of food for me. but. very nice cooking and looks delicious! i like your kitchen too.

[lovely0th]

can we do it with shrimps?

pepper shrimp

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

Yes shrimp would work, just cook them until light pink about a min or two :)

[lovely0th]

thx!

[shartanne]

I can't find the dark thick soy--are there any substitutions that could be made for it?

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

For this recipe you can substitute it with 1 tsp of regular soy sauce mixed with 1 tsp molasses. Thanks for watching :)

[ejeanpierre0016]

ur an amazing chef!!!

[Ishotbloo]

awesome i love chinese food!

[nayor3370]

do you recommend non-alcohol ingredients besides sherry?

or ist it ok to cook this recipe without sherry?

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

The sherry does add a bit of flavor in this recipe, but you can substitute it with 1 tsp rice wine vinegar mixed with 1 tsp of water or chicken broth :)

[palui123]

aaaa.... the food just make me Sluurrr... Great!! XD Nw I can Cook my own BPC!! ~umomommom~

[siphornewifey]

what is the brand of the "thick soy sauce" u used? im srry but i jux want to know so i will know what to buy and where because i have no idea...

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

Don't be sorry - this is a great question. The brand I use is "Koon Chun" and can be found in most oriental gocery stores :)

[GuiltySpark347]

Is it possible to make general taos chicken with the chicken stir fried instead of deep fried?This is awesome!!

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

Yes, that is a great idea. I would just use a little dark soy to marinate, rather than the 1/4 cup of reg soy :)

[GuiltySpark347]

excellent!

[BoxerMonkey]

would you recommend any other alcohols other than sherry for this recipe?

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

Shao hsing wine is great in this too - I've never really used any others than those two; but you can always experiment. Even a little bourbon might be good :)

[BoxerMonkey]

i was thinking shao hsing wine, but now i'm thinking bourbon :P

lol, thank you for the tips, and the great cooking video's. they have all been very helpful.

oh, and may i add, you are very good looking ;)

[metsrus]

hi lilly, is the the thick soy sauce the same thing as hoisin sauce?

[AsianCookingmadeEasy]

Hi - it's Lila (which is actually pronounced leela.) I have a heavy accent so it comes out like "lilly" sorry :)

Thick soy is not the same as hoisin sauce. Thick soy is a thicker sweeter version of regular soy that has molasses and extra sugar added. You can usually find it in any oriental grocery store. Thanks for watching :)

[mzungu1970]

Yeah, love black pepper chicken ......

[GITCenterprises]

YES!! One of my faves! Thanks! :D

[adamenko89]

INCREDIBLE! Thank you so much for you AMAZING recipes!!!

Can't wait to try it for myself =-]

[Kamasutress]

Me too. Thx for sharing your recipes, Am becoming more confident each time i watch your tutorials in cooking and believe I can actually prepare that and it can be as delicious.

[shimushimu]
