Instructions
Prep
Trim and thoroughly dry green beans. Rinse ya cai and chop fine. Mince garlic and grate ginger. Snip dried chillies into 1cm pieces. Mix soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, Sichuan pepper, salt, and sesame oil in a small bowl.
Char
Heat 4 tbsp neutral oil in a wok over high heat until smoking. Add green beans in a single layer without stirring. Dry-fry 5–6 minutes, tossing occasionally, until wrinkled, blistered, and lightly charred. Remove and set aside.
Saute
Add remaining 2 tbsp oil to the wok over high heat. Stir-fry minced chicken 4–5 minutes, breaking up clumps, until cooked through and lightly golden. Add garlic, ginger, chilli, and ya cai; toss 1–2 minutes until fragrant.
Build
Return green beans to the wok. Pour in the sauce mixture and toss over high heat 1–2 minutes until well coated and glossy. Drizzle sesame oil and toss once more.
Plate
Transfer to a serving bowl and serve immediately over steamed rice.
