Ingredients

12 chicken drumsticks (about 2 pounds)
4 large cloves garlic, grated
Kosher salt
8 Do-si-dos® or Peanut Butter Sandwich cookies
1/3 cup peanut butter, softened
3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
4 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 to 1 1/2 tablespoons hot sauce
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 large knob fresh ginger, peeled and grated

Steps:

Position an oven rack in the middle of the oven and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
Rub the drumsticks with the garlic, season with salt and arrange far from one another on the prepared baking sheet. Bake on the middle rack until the chicken is cooked through (165 degrees F) and the juices run clear, 25 to 30 minutes.
In a medium bowl, mix the cookies with 1/2 cup warm water; crush the cookies with the back of a spoon until they form a paste. Whisk in the peanut butter and soy sauce with an additional 1/4 cup warm water if needed. Stir in the lime juice, red wine vinegar, hot sauce, garlic powder, red pepper flakes and ginger. Taste for seasoning.
Toss the chicken in the sauce and serve immediately.

STIR-FRIED CHICKEN WITH PEANUTS

Stir-Fried Chicken with Peanuts image

Serve this home-style version of kung pao chicken and peanuts with a side of steamed white rice. If you're feeding a large crowd, stir-fry an additional batch instead of making one large serving at once; overcrowding the pan won't allow the ingredients to cook properly.From the book "Mad Hungry," by Lucinda Scala Quinn (Artisan Books).

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

1/3 cup soy sauce
3 tablespoons shaoxing cooking wine or dry sherry
1 tablespoon rice vinegar or white vinegar
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
1 whole boneless, skinless chicken breast (about 1 1/2 pounds)
1 1/2 tablespoons peanut oil or vegetable oil
3/4 cup unsalted dry-roasted peanuts or cashews
2 whole scallions, thinly sliced
4 whole dried Chinese red peppers
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon cornstarch

Steps:

In a bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, wine, vinegar, sugar, and sesame oil. Dice the chicken and toss it in the marinade.
Heat a wok or skillet over high heat until very hot. Add the oil. Lightly fry the peanuts for about 1 minute and remove. Add the scallions, red peppers, and garlic. Stir-fry for about 20 seconds.
Just before adding to the pan, coat the chicken in the cornstarch. Fry until the chicken is just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes (depending on the pan and the heat). Return the peanuts to the pan and mix thoroughly to combine with the chicken. Serve immediately with white rice.
