Gong Bao Chicken
This beloved Chinese dish, especially popular in the Hunan province, owes its distinctive heat and sourness to a fermented pickled chili relish called du jiao. My recipe is adapted from Fuchsia Dunlop’s acclaimed book, Revolutionary Chinese Cookbook: Recipes from Hunan Province.
Fried Pickle Salad
This has been my hyper-fixation meal of late. This delicious salad starts with a hearty mix of shredded cabbage and massaged kale, making it ideal for meal prep. It’s topped with shredded rotisserie chicken, radish sticks, and sliced cherry tomatoes, then drizzled with a creamy homemade ranch packed with fresh herbs and plenty of garlic. This satisfying salad always hits the spot and comes together quickly, as long as your ingredients are prepped ahead of time.
