    OK. No review because used thinly sliced pork instead of chicken. Also, subbed chili paste with garlic for red pepper. Everything else the same. Yum!

    Authentic Black Bean Chicken, Fermented black beans are found in Asian markets and once you buy them, they last pretty much forever! Also called salted black beans, they’re used in the black bean chicken you order from Chinese take-out and has a much different flavor than the Mexican type of black beans. From chef Fuchsia Dunlop with my addition of some red pepper for color! Also check out my review of Recipe#247607., OK. No review because used thinly sliced pork instead of chicken. Also, subbed chili paste with garlic for red pepper. Everything else the same. Yum!, I am hoping to make this for guests who don’t like hot spicy food… 2 to 3 tsps of dried chili peppers sounds super spicy… would reducing the amount diminish the dish significantly?
