CHICKEN IN BLACK BEAN SAUCE
From my favorite cookbook- The Roosevelt Raccoons "All of Our Favorites" cookbook. The cookbook contains recipes from active parents and teachers of Roosevelt Elementary School, Mankato, MN. It is where I went to school, and my family submitted all of our family favorites for it. So, we probably have 10 copies of the book in our house! This recipe was from Fahn Hakkila, a friend of ours.

Steps:
- Have a quick rinse of the douchi for ten seconds to remove the dirt and sand.
- Drain in a colander, transfer them to a tray, spread them into a single layer, and blow-dry under the fan for one hour.
- Place them in a pan and toast over low heat until they are all dried up. The endpoint is when the douchi is no longer shiny, dull, and light, and aromatic.
- Heat five tablespoons of vegetable oil in the wok. Saute the chopped onion for one minute, followed by the minced garlic for another minute.
- Next, add the chopped chilies when the garlic starts to turn aromatic.
- Season it with cho hou sauce, sugar, light soy sauce, and oyster sauce.
- Return the toasted black beans to the wok. Give it a good mix, then add some Shaoxing wine, chenpi, and just enough water to cover the beans.
- Simmer over medium heat to soften the beans for about five minutes or until the water has evaporated.
- Cut 500g of chicken breast or chicken thigh into one-inch lengths.
- Marinate the meat with light soy sauce, sesame oil, black pepper, and cornstarch, and black bean sauce for half an hour.
- Cut one medium-sized onion, one red bell pepper, and one green bell pepper into wedges, about the same size as the chicken fillet.
- Heat a tablespoon of oil in the wok, stir-fry the onion wedges for two minutes until they start to turn color, then add the bell peppers and stir-fry for another minute. Remove from wok.
- Put the marinated chicken in the wok, stir-fry over medium heat until cooked. Then add the black bean paste. Turn up the heat, and return the vegetables to the wok to have a few quick stirs and flips. Serve.

ASPARAGUS CHICKEN WITH BLACK BEAN SAUCE
This is a very tasty family favourite that I've slightly modified from the original which came from a great cookbook called Thai Cooking and More. NOTE #1 Just so there's no confusion, this recipe uses a prepared Chinese Black Bean Sauce, NOT your regular black beans. This can be found with the ethnic foods at your local grocer, usually where you find soy sauce, etc. This is also where you'll find the hot chili paste; my preference is Sombel Oelek NOTE #2 Prep time includes 30 minute marinating time.
