Ma Po Chicken 麻婆鸡片


This is a quick, spicy and flavourful chicken dish made with the ready-made Lee Kum Kee Ma Po sauce, and best served warm with steamed white rice.

  • 170 g Chicken breast
  • 1/4 tsp Salt
  • 1/2 Egg white
  • 1/2 tbsp Cornstarch
  • 1 stalk Spring onion
  • ½ Red bell pepper
  • 60 g Lee Kum Kee Ma Po sauce
  • 1 tbsp Salad oil
  1. Clean the chicken breast and slice them thinly. Add in salt, egg white and cornstarch. Cut the spring onions into chunks and the bell pepper into pieces.
  2. Heat up a wok with oil, stir in the sliced chicken. Add in the spring onions, bell pepper pieces and Mapo sauce. Stir until all the ingredients are well-combined and cooked.

    @Mausi:A sharp knife or you could try freezing the chicken for 10 minutes, until slightly firm, will do the trick.

    I Googled "ma po chicken" and this blog was the first one to pop up. I'm so glad I found it!

    This chicken recipe is very quick, delicious and looks pretty! I used skinless, boneless chicken thighs since I think breast meat can be a little stringy. Other than that, I followed the recipe as is.

    Adding to my collection of food blog bookmarks! Thanks!
