To Make the Chicken
In a small bowl, combine the chili garlic sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, chicken stock and cornstarch slurry and set aside. Heat a large sauté
pan or wok over high heat for about a minute. When you see the first wisps of white smoke, swirl in the oil, garlic and chilies.
Stir and scrape until the garlic is light brown, about 30 seconds. Toss the chicken into the pan and stir constantly until it is nearly cooked
through. Stir in the vegetables and nuts, and cook for about a minute, until the onion starts to turn translucent.
Add the sauce, Szechuan peppercorn powder, pinch of pepper, and stir everything in the pan together until the sauce coats the chicken and
thickens. Cook for an additional minute or until the chicken is cooked through.
