This will get your motor running! Not for the faint of palate though…
Ingredient list:
1 lb of chicken thighs, more or less
3 t canola oil
3 t cornstarch
pinch of kosher salt
few grinds from the pepper mill
1 sliced onion
3 t sweet paprika
1 t ground cumin
2 cloves garlic
1/2 t chili powder
2 t fish sauce
1/3 cup water
1 crushed dried red pepper or 1 T red pepper flakes
2 Poblano peppers, seeded and sliced
2 Anaheim peppers, seeded and sliced
Rinse the chicken under cold water and mix with 1 1/2 t cornstarch and 1 t oil in a large bowl, sprinkle with salt and pepper and let sit for 15 minutes
Heat remainder of the oil in a large skillet and brown the chicken on all sides
add onion and saute a few minutes
slice and seed and/or crush all of the peppers (if you don’t have a dried red pepper, just throw the red pepper flakes on top of the fresh peppers)
add paprika, cumin, garlic and chili to skillet and move the chicken around so the spices get mixed up a little
add peppers
cook for a few minutes until the onion and peppers soften
mix remaining cornstarch, fish sauce and 1/3 cup of water, whisking until it’s smooth. Add more water if it can’t be poured out easily.
add it to the skillet
Cook for a few more minutes until the sauce thickens, adjust salt and pepper and add a little more chili powder (if you are really brave!)
Serve on rice with a cold beer, or maybe a refreshing semi dry Reisling!

This looks delicious…I don’t eat foods that are very spicy and my man doesn’t eat anything that has peppers so it wouldn’t be for us.
