1 piece of chicken breast, half a cucumber, 1 small handful of peanuts, about 10 dried chili peppers, a little oil and salt, 1 green onion, 1 slice of ginger, garlic 2 cloves, 1 spoon of light soy sauce, 1/2 spoon of dark soy sauce, 1 and a half spoons of sugar, 2 spoons of balsamic vinegar, 1 spoon of cooking wine, 1 spoon of white pepper, 1 and a half spoons of starch, 10 peppers.

Add appropriate amount of water, mix well and set aside.

5. Put some base oil in the pot, add Sichuan peppercorns, fry over low heat until the Sichuan peppercorns are fragrant, and then remove the excess Sichuan peppercorns. Finally, add dried chili peppers, chopped green onions, minced ginger and garlic slices to the pepper oil, and then stir-fry until fragrant.

6. Pour the diced cucumbers into the pot and stir-fry evenly. Just stir-fry the cucumbers for a little while, not too long.
