SZECHUAN-STYLE STIR FRY CHICKEN WITH PEANUTS
This recipe is out of Cooking Light magazine. It is very much like Kung Pao chicken. I have played with this recipe a lot. I like to add veggies and usually turn the heat level up a bit. This recipe is habit forming!

SZECHUAN CHICKEN WITH PEANUTS 6 WW PTS
I've made this several times and we really enjoy it. I believe it came from a Weight Watchers cookbook, but I can't quite remember. It has 6 WW points, if you are following that program. Even if you're not, it's great, and I think even better than what you'd get in a restaurant. My husband, who is definitely anti-diet food anything, really likes it.
