Anyway, works out fantastic – sweet and spicy.Can i use something other than eggs.I sprayed mine with just a little cooking spray so the chicken wouldn’t stick. Exactly the recipe I’ve been searching for. However I have just realised reading through the other reviews that I should have been using Franks Buffalo sauce and not Franks hot sauce, I didn’t realise there was a difference and am not positive that it is available here in Ireland, like red pepper flakes, which are not available anywhere in Europe that I have looked. Enjoy!I have made this a few times and it has always been a roaring success.
Pull up a chair!If you have the urge to go to Panda Express, don’t do it. Thanks for sharing.Is there something to replace the buffalo sauce? Everyone in my home (family & guests) loves it. 30 Minutes or Less 45 Minutes or Less No Restrictions.
It tastes like General Tso’s chicken or maybe a spicy sweet and sour. You could use an egg substitute for sure, or you could try it with a more standard breading like coating in buttermilk and then a light dusting in cornstarch.

YIELD: 2 cups.
It took a tad longer than the stated 45 minutes, but oh well, totally worth it. It’s common on some popular Chinese take-out menus—and with good reason, because it’s delicious. Thanks for posting!Absolutely delicious.
Stayed true to the recipe this time.

For each cup of rice I add a clove of garlic, minced; half of an onion, diced; half cup each of diced carrots and red bell peppers and cook as usual. 299 suggested recipes. Better than the restaurant version. 1 ⁄ 2. cup green onion, thinly sliced .
I have made this with both rice and mashed potatoes. And …I will make this again and again. It’s better.It’s common on some popular Chinese take-out menus—and with good reason, because it’s delicious.And very simple. Served it with Jasmine Rice and there were no leftovers between 3 people.The only thing I will do different next time is make 1-1/2 batches of the sauce as 1 batch was not enough for 1-1/2 pounds of chicken pieces, and will most definitely bump up the heat!I’m not sure that you’ll find anything exactly like this Firecracker Chicken if you actually travel to China.
No, this is definitely an Americanized version of Chinese stir-fry!I have now made this twice for my family! Recipe by Chef Kate. I used a combination of Crystal Louisiana hot sauce and Sweet Baby Rays Buffalo Sauce. I cannot find it at the market. I waited till the next day to cleanup and it wasn’t easy.Hey Thomas, I haven’t tried with anything but eggs. It’s great, one of my favorite meals. !If you cook a lot, it might seem odd to bread the chicken in cornstarch and egg, and then add it straight to the skillet with no outer breading layer on the chicken.
Chicken was moist and tender. No, this is definitely an Americanized version of Chinese stir-fry! What might work instead?It’s a winner for sure and about as easy as Chinese take-out can get at home. How much time do you have?
That might work just as well. Loved it and will make it a part of my permanent go to recipe file!
They loved it either way.
