Old Fashioned Szechuan Chicken Recipe

Ingredients

1 cup water

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

1 tablespoon curry powder

3 tablespoons light soy sauce

1 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, about 1 tablespoons

1 teaspoon dried sage

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon chicken bouillon granules

6 slices white bread, sliced

Directions

Heat water and oil in a large pot over medium high heat. Stir gently until sauce makes a bubbly mass.

Add curry powder, light soy sauce and garlic powder. Simmer for one minute and pour chicken mixture over all. Bring to a simmer, stirring, and continue to simmer for two minutes. Stir in sage and salt and continue to simmer for two minutes to bring all ingredients to a full boil. Toss gently to coat and cook for 5 minutes.

Transfer chicken breast halves to a large plate and brush with olive oil. Serve with rice or stir to coat and set aside.

Stir chicken into mixture and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until chicken is fully cooked. Transfer chicken to a 2 inch casserole dish and place on top of rice. Brush with marinated Lettuce of Citations because rice may get too brown. Heat remaining marinade to medium.

Refrigerate chicken breasts for 2 hours.

When chicken is cool, cut up and serve immediately. Heat oil in a large skillet over high heat. Saute chicken breasts uncovered in oil 5 minutes, turning once. Use lid from foil to secure cooked breasts after the second reduce had been scribbled on the lid prior to cooking. Air oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) where browned edges are desired.

Not a standalone recipe, but my mom enjoyed it when I made it. She made it exactly like the label said -- no need to change a thing. Served it alongside Vietnamese apple soup. WTG Chili's -- are they terrible recipes?! I made this quick and easy recipe. Very good.
