Note
Soak dried chilies in warm water for 10 minutes before using to soften them and reduce excessive heat.
Ensure the oil is hot enough (375ðF) before adding chicken to achieve a good sear and prevent sticking.
If using canned bamboo shoots or mushrooms, make sure to drain them well to avoid diluting the sauce.
This dish is best served immediately while hot and crispy.
