Traditional stir fried "kung pao chicken"

Introduction:

Before making "Kung Pao diced chicken", let's introduce the historical allusion and origin of "Kung Pao diced chicken". I also introduced it to my friends in the group topic. This dish was made by Ding Baozhen, a loyal minister and good general of the Qing Dynasty. It was also his family's housekeeping dish. There are three kinds of legends about the origin of Gong Bao Ji Ding: first, Ding Baozhen was born in Guizhou Province. He was a Jinshi in Xianfeng Period of Qing Dynasty. He once served as governor of Shandong Province and then governor of Sichuan Province. He has always loved the dishes of stir fried chili, pork and chicken. It is said that when he worked in Shandong Province, he ordered his family kitchen to make "stir fried diced chicken in soy sauce", which was very appetizing, but it was not famous at that time. After he was transferred to governor of Sichuan, every time he met with a banquet, he would let the kitchen fry the diced chicken with peanuts, dried peppers and tender chicken. The meat was tender and delicious, which was very popular with the guests. Later, he was granted the title of "Prince Shaobao" and "Ding Gongbao" by the imperial court for his meritorious service in defending the border and defending the enemy. The fried diced chicken cooked by his kitchen was also known as "Gongbao diced chicken". Second, Ding Baozhen was transferred to Sichuan Province to promote water conservancy. People felt his virtue and offered his favorite fried chicken, which was called "Gongbao chicken". Third, when Ding Baozhen was in Sichuan, he often paid a private visit. Once I had a meal in a small restaurant, and I had spicy chicken fried with peanuts. It was imitated by the chef, who named it Gongbao chicken. The so-called "Gong Bao" is actually Ding Baozhen's honorary title. According to the explanation in the dictionary of Chinese officials of all dynasties, officials at all levels in the Ming and Qing dynasties had "nominal titles". The highest virtual titles are "Taishi, Shaoshi, Taifu, Shaofu, Taibao, Shaobao, Taizi Taishi, Taizi Shaoshi, Taizi Taifu, Taizi Shaofu, Taizi Taibao, Taizi Shaobao". All of the above are nominal titles granted to important ministers in the court, and they have no actual power. Some of them are posthumous gifts, commonly known as "palace titles". After Xianfeng, these empty titles no longer used "so and so teacher" but "so and so Bao", so these highest empty titles had another name - "Gong Bao". Ding Baozhen ruled Shu for ten years. He was upright as an official and made great achievements. He died in the 11th year of Guangxu. In order to recognize his achievements, the Qing court gave him the "crown prince and Taibao". As mentioned above, "Prince Taibao" is one of the "Gongbao", so the dish he invented was named "Gongbao diced chicken", which is also a memorial to Mr. Ding. As time goes by, many people don't know what "Gongbao" is, so they take it for granted to write "Gongbao chicken" as "gongpao chicken". Although there is a word difference, it has changed the original intention of commemorating Ding Baozhen. "Kung pao chicken" is a good stir fried dish for family banquets on New Year's day. The specific methods are as follows. "

When frying diced chicken, the chicken can be fished out as soon as it changes color. At this time, the diced chicken is basically five mature.
