Gorgeous Ginger Chicken

• 2 Tablespoons Oil, For Frying
• 1 Tablespoon Grated Fresh Ginger, Or To Taste
• 2 cloves Garlic, Grated On A Microplane
• 1 Onion, Sliced (optional)
• 3 Boneless Chicken Thighs, Chopped To Bite Size Pieces
• 1 teaspoon Ground And Roasted Sichuan Peppercorns
• 13 cups Rice Wine Vinegar (I Use Shao Hsing Cooking Wine)
• 1 Tablespoon Honey
• 3 Tablespoons Light Soy Sauce
• 1 whole Star Anise (See Note)

1. Heat oil in a wok or round frying pan over medium heat.
2. Add ginger, garlic and sliced onion if using.
3. Fry for a few minutes, until softened.
4. Add chicken and cook until brown, 3 minutes or so.
5. Add ground peppercorns, red wine vinegar, honey, soy sauce and star anise.
6. Reduce heat to low and simmer covered for 20 minutes.
7. Remove the star anise (see note).
8. Serve over noodles or rice.
9. There wont be too much sauce, so noodles/rice wont be swimming in it like soup.
10. There will be just enough sauce so it can be mixed up.
11. Bon appetit!
12. Note: Star anise can be expensive, which is why I recycle them.
13. Since they need to be fished out of the dish anyway, I dry them after fishing them out and save for another use.
