This was good but did not taste like the King Pao chicken at my favorite restaurants. Good though and there was none left over.

Not impressed. The flavor was ok but not great. There are better recipes out there.

The flavor is incredible! A little too hot for some of my family. I will cut back on the chili paste next time.

Oh my goodness that was spicy. I tripled the sauce, but put in two ounces of chili paste in instead of three and still super spicy. But all in all still fantastic.

I made it as written. Not enough sauce, so I would suggest doubling it. Also I'm used to kung pao chicken having cabbage in it. Regardless, overall this was pretty good for home Chinese food.

I would give this 10+ stars if I could!! AMAZING. I followed the recipe to the tee except I used 1/2 lbs cut up chicken tender meat, no onions or water chestnuts (ew) and I left the peanuts whole. WOW, this was fantastic. THANKS!

We really enjoyed this dish. As suggested I doubled the recipe, but not the cornstarch. I added some sliced carrots and brocoli. I recommend to rinse the peanuts to reduce the amount of sodium.

Good recipe on the first try. I did double the sauce as suggested, but do not recommend doubling the corn starch, as it isnt necessary. I also did a few things to enrich the flavors: use half dark, half light soy sauce in the sauce, add some chipotle powder to the marinade and a little fresh ginger and extra minced garlic to the sauce as well. Great recipe.

Wow...I made this recipe last night and followed it to the T. I trippled the sauce though (Im a sauce girl) it was honestly better than any Kung Pao I have ever had. My husband and I argued over who was going to get the leftovers for lunch! ....I won :) Thanks for sharing it!!

Great with any vegetables, chicken or any meat for that matter. Easy to scale and easy to increase heat level for those who love it. And as others have said in their reviews this is restaurant quality. I have made it 6 or 7 times in the last month and I'm addicted.

I LOVE this recipe!! But I do make a ton of changes. First, I'm using tofu instead of chicken. I don't bother to marinade the tofu. I start by stir frying the tofu with olive oil, a splash of sesame oil, black pepper, and garlic. Then I add veggies--I especially like to add broccoli, pea pods, white onion, and red bell pepper. Once everything is stir-fried, I add the sauce in. To make the sauce, I usually quadruple the amount, except the chili paste. I love hot, but even one ounce of the chili paste is a lot! Last, I throw on the green onion and peanuts. So delicious!

I thought this was pretty good. However, the BF did not like it. I left out the onion, water chestnuts and peanuts. I added about a tablespoon of peanut butter while the sauce was simmering. Definitely triple the sauce. Mine got a little thick so I thined it out with more wine. I served over rice with red and yellow peppers.

I am giving this a three rating because the original recipe calls for way too much corn starch. You should just use half the amount required, or less. Otherwise, the taste of the recipe was great. I tripled the ingredients because I like more sauce.
