I’m in awe of Claire’s abilities She has managed to turn Aaron into her personal gourmet chef To be envied for sure

[@AaronandClaire]

🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@GreenLifeInDublin]

I second that! I was going to say that Claire has the best job in the world, tasting and rating all these amazing looking dishes :)

[@EnzoCroft]

@@GreenLifeInDublin also washing them too lol

[@GreenLifeInDublin]

@@EnzoCroft that goes with the territory lol 😉

[@peregrinec5477]

I just had a goofy thought. Like in the out takes, does Claire go, "NO THAT IS WRONG DO IT AGAIN!" :D It was totally hilarious in my head. :) I love you guys. :)

[@Truckngirl]

"Screaming in the bathroom the next day", is the best chili heat rating I've ever heard!

[@McCreaFamilyHomestead]

Lol right!! I was about to comment the same thing. 🤣🤣

[@iamgort70]

We call that result 'The ring stinger!' 😆👍🇦🇺

[@rayrodriguez7367]

Nothing better than "Hello from Seoul" and "Don't worry about it" except for "Claire?" and seeing her enjoy the food!

[@EvaMariposa]

The saying "Happy wife, happy life" surely applies to their marriage 😁

[@kaiju_k5042]

Your channel is so addictive, I'v been binge watching it all day today haha, thank you for the new upload!

[@CallHerSociallyAnxious]

I know right! Can't tell you how many times I've found myself binge watching this channel's videos and then feeling super hungry! 😄

[@adriennecurry5033]

Agree I did this too when I first came across them, now I’m always waiting for a new video

[@AaronandClaire]

@kaiju k Thank you so much for enjoying our videos! 😆🙏🙏🙏

[@adyam_j]

"You will see your self screaming in the bathroom the next day" - Aaron 2021

[@AaronandClaire]

😆😆😆😆

[@toinette26]

I howled lauging 😂😂😂

[@matts.1443]

Aaron doesn't lie.

[@emisadiaz8563]

To be honest, that's the spicy level I like.

[@Danimal1177]

Greatest chili heat rating of all time!

[@HeyitsDee]

Once again, 2 things happened: you made my mouth and eyes water, and your adorable dog stole the spotlight from Claire. Love you guys

[@colinbrash]

Helpful hint I learned from Kenji - that “blanching” of the chicken (aka “velveting”) can be done in water. Just pass it through boiling water for 45 seconds, take it out and let it drain dry, then stir fry it to finish cooking. Much easier for the home cook!

[@starscapenatasha1109]

Afaik what you're describing is basically poaching. It will work but you won't get the same depth of flavor that you do in oil. You'll also lose out on any crusting that would form in an oil, in part because you won't be able to go above 222F, which Aaron's technique definitely does (starts at 250, and then cranks to high heat when adding the chicken). One of the reasons he says that if you're using chicken breasts he highly recommends you use this technique is because it will make a huge difference in flavor specifically for a lean cut of meat like a breast. I love Kenji, but I don't see how you could get the same result, and it doesn't seem like too much extra work (disposal of the oil is easy) to do it this way. If you're cutting calories though I think it makes sense to use water instead.

[@J03TC]

With everything that goes on in the world right now, when I watch these videos I "Don't worrybout it"

[@cameronhetzler5407]

It's not complete until Aaron tells you how to look good in front of your girlfriend (or wife, in my case) 😎

[@AaronandClaire]

🤣🤣🤣

[@Shagratt71]

G''day Aaron & Claire, It's the 6th time I've made your version of Kung Poa Chicken and I gotta say its the best one on the internet, love love love it!. Thanks guys, much love from Australia.

[@AaronandClaire]

Haha So happy for you~! 😁👍

[@krbenc5811]

i really appreciated the zoom in on the dog in the background XD

[@housinit]

Your recipes and cooking technique tips are the best! I never knew how easy it was to make all kinds of Korean and Chinese dishes. I've made a whole bunch of your recipes and they are all awesome! Thank you for this one, it's my ladies favorite dish, so now I'm gonna have to make it for her.

[@EclecticK]

While not the most comprehensive cooking channel, this one is easily my favorite for the dynamic of the Taste tester and the chef. You guys are fantastic. My wife and I look forward to each new video. :D

[@ivycarter5906]

Yessss! I just made Aaron's mapo tofu for dinner today, now I get to try out this kung pao chicken recipe this weekend... thank you for inspiring me to make dishes that aren't just Japanese curry and jjajangmyeon!

[@Sarah-ev1gj]

the one dislike is from the owner of a Chinese restaurant who knows he's about to lose so much business

[@b.serene0609]

lol!

[@CindyWarren2004]

Or from a crazy angry middle aged asian guy who thinks they can do it better.

[@kayoualorkyl]

@@michieff me definitely lol

[@skipdog9912]

Lmao 🤣 I’m dying right now! 😅

[@Reider242]

Not sure how I found this channel but pumped!! 🙂💪🇨🇦

[@leilarecio1093]

I really love Aaron's sense of humor. I couldn't stop laughing at his bathroom humor.

[@yungxmodulus]

I love how honest you are about things like mirin and the peanuts

[@Rush-91]

I'm starting to think Aaron is secretly the owner of a large green onion distributor.

[@madcatjo]

He's a shill for Big Green Onion. (A good one too: I've been buying, chopping and freezing them since I got addicted to this channel. 😹)

[@joyfulparadise]

I made this tonight and it was a HIT. I seriously never thought I could make such a dish. My husband loved it. Definitely making again. The flavor was amazing. Like something you would get at a restaurant. I love how Aaron always says “if you don’t have this ingredient dont worrry about it. Just skip it.” Aaron’s humor is what makes it so fun to watch. Dude is hilarious. I now have several favorite dishes of his that I make ALL THE TIME. Thanks aaron and claire.

[@AaronandClaire]

You're so welcome! So happy to hear that!!! 😁👍

"Within 20 minutes, from scratch. What do you say?" I say get the damn green onions ready cause we're doing this 😎

[@DeliciousSingleLife]

Kung pao chicken! One of my favorite Chinese food. Thanks for this great recipe!

[@AaronandClaire]

You're very welcome! Hope you enjoy this! :)

[@kathleenrice2620]

We had your recipe for Kung Pao chicken tonight. I have to say how delicious we thought it was. Honestly, we are huge fans of Kung Pao we have been making it at home for a while. No matter what recipe we use I could never get the sauce, or the texture of the chicken like our favorite place we always ordered from. We always use veggies in ours, red pepper, green pepper, onion, and celery. I did like you said, and kept the veggies crunchy, but not raw. Hands down your recipe is our favorite. It turned out so well, we can’t wait to make it again. Thank you for the keeper😊

[@AaronandClaire]

Yay!! You made it!!! 😆 So happy for you guys and thank you for the awesome review! 😁🙏

[@Monstein]

This has me excited! I have tried other peoples recipes for this but love all of the recipes you do so this is perfect for me.

[@Kunnie]

*We know Korea is addicted in Chicken🤣 I'm also a chicken lover! This is new recipe for me. Thank U* 😊

[@AaronandClaire]

You're very welcome! Have a great day! 🤗

[@mexicanafresca9617]

Can you explain why chicken skin is associated with summer in the video?

[@einundsiebenziger5488]

... addicted to* chicken

[@JenJean1234]

I always look forward to your wonderful videos! You make everything fun and delicious! I just can't figure out how Claire stays so thin with all of this great cooking. She must only eat during the videos!😄

[@dianesmigelski5804]

I love how you break the recipe down and explain each step. Looks so good! Yum.

[@rasgotiriebud]

Team work makes the dream work! So glad I found your channel 😄

[@kingovue]

I'm so happy to see your channel growing!!

[@AaronandClaire]

Thank you so much for saying that and being the one with us! 😊🙏

[@Gigismum]

Perfect recipe! I’ve eaten Kung Pao chicken for decades but didn’t know how to make it. Now, I will try it! And I have the Sichuan pepper oil. 😋

[@owenkd8089]

Claire is so funny 😂 btw in Hawaii we eat rice with everything too. Can’t wait to try this out!

[@ssoozee]

I. Love. Aaron. And. Claire! Thank you for this recipe!

[@jeonjungkook7]

I wanted to learn this for so long. 🥺💕 Thank you guys

[@AaronandClaire]

You're very welcome! Hope this might help! 😊

[@arabicempress]

Aaron and Claire you're lifesaver/heroes and the most cute couple on KZbin! Talk about being a power couple 💑💞

[@momonomono]

"No problem at all" is becoming my favorite phrase bc I'm broke and I don't often have the ingredients that are used lol

[@ChrimsonChin]

Dude I just found you guys from your rice paper recipies video! You guys are so charming and my man here can cook. I love you guys, this is great.

[@chucklarock8010]

I've been watching your videos for a week now, and today I went to my local Asia store and bought everything I needed and then some :D So happy I found your channel!

[@TheGeotube23]

The finger and hand gesticulations is one of my favourite things about these videos. After the awsome tips of course!

[@sadisticsmokie666]

Looks like it is time to hit the super market again!

[@AaronandClaire]

Hahaha That's the spirit! 🤣🤣😍

[@Adriano_.]

I love the “don’t worry about it, no problem at all” every video 😂

[@marthacorona7109]

Claire you’re so Lucky to test all these delicious plates....yummm!😍

[@dimplegamgee]

Good day Aaron & Claire, I chance upon your recipe today and after trying so many Kung Pao recipe, yours is 🏆! It was so easy to prepare and no fuss at all but most importantly, it tasted super yummy!!! 💜🫶🏼

[@chanelh1972]

I love Claire so much. She always makes everything seem like it’s the most delicious thing she’s ever eaten 🥰❤️

[@blah643]

I see new video I click and automatically hit the like button!!! Also I've NEVER been this early to a video here lol

[@AaronandClaire]

Yay!!! Thank you so much for coming this early and hitting the like button! lol 😆🙏

[@salrose8536]

I tried this recipe today and it turned out great tasting 👍 thanks for sharing it with all 😊

[@mholtebeck]

of all the cooking channels I watch- Aaron and Claire's is the one I try to replicate that week. Part of it is his delivery- because he tells me it's easy. Part of it is the recipe. I have chicken, and I have a wok. I can do this.

[@AncientMysteriesAndInnovations]

You should show them how to do a standard brown sauce they can use for several dishes with slight different variations of additions

[@jenessarenee]

This looks amazing!

[@AaronandClaire]

Thank you! 🥰

[@MichaelM-tt5wd]

Love this dish. Well explained and nicely done. Thanks for sharing ! Here's a little secret only a few people on the planet seem to know. The hottest part of the chili fruit are the white inner partition walls and then comes the pulp. The seeds contain neither aromatics nor any hotness. They are as hot as your fingers when you touch the pepper due to the fact that they are in direct contact with the partition walls where most of the capsaicin is produced. I have no idea why 95% of the people think that the seeds are hot, but it's definately a myth.

[@vcrinanoob]

Thank you Aaron, you are simply the best^^ Greetings from Belgium

[@Dee17]

Hi Aaron & Claire, Do you have an alternative for mirin for people who don't use alcohol. Would love to try this recipe. Thanks so much

I LOVE Kung Pau chicken and never made at home. Your recipe is so easy. THANKS Aaron

A wonderful recipe and most adorable the way Claire acts as your taste tester bravo Aaron

[@gordonshaffer5560]

Aaron and Claire, you are making it very hard for me to ever go back to American style cooking. At 68 years old, I will miss my hamburgers and hot dogs, but I can't help myself. You have shown us all so much I don't see this style of cooking ever getting old and it's certainly not expensive. Thanks !!

[@AaronandClaire]

You're most welcome! Thank you so much for enjoying our videos! 😊🙏

[@sakurasu907]

You and Claire have my 💜. You’re an excellent chef with great humor. Your cooking and flavors are the real thing. 😋 Gamsamnida 🙇🏻‍♀️

[@rsolsjo]

"All you need is these basic things" And then you hit us with the secret Szechuan pepper oil 😂

[@omadnomad1635]

I made this today my friend and it was excellent . I had to sub mushroom sauce instead of oyster sauce so it was slightly sweet but it was so good . Ty so much

[@AaronandClaire]

Awesome! Glad you glad it! 🤗 (FYI, if you can't use oyster sauce, you can add more soy sauce. Of course, that could be lighter or thinner than oyster sauce, but still gonna be good! Hope this helps! 😍)

[@amai_zing]

it's so beautiful and looks so delicious!!!

[@heukbaek00]

Hello Aaron and Claire! I have a question for you: What exactly is the type of dried chili peppers that you use in this recipe?

[@habibijoeytv7923]

Thanks for sharing your video.

[@AaronandClaire]

You're very welcome! Thank YOU for watching! 🤗

[@glennanderson4964]

I love your videos!!! That "in the bathroom screaming" comment reminds me of the time I tried the 2X volcano ramen....I can't wait to visit your country and try some of Claire's favorite buffets.

[@micsuehar]

OMG....this looks fabulous. Can't wait to try making it! Unfortunately I can't have any nuts, but I'll add celery. Gee can all Korean men cook? I need to find myself an Aaron. Claire, you are so lucky you get to try out all the recipes! I love watching your reactions. Thanks for all the cooking tips. Made this over the weekend. Was awesome!! It also gave me some items to shop for at the Korean Market (which I love going to). Thanks Claire and Aaron!

[@chaosgremlin4527]

I love your recipes! I live for your updates! I have to remove the peanuts, but other than that, this recipe is perfect for me! And I love the peppers! I grow 12 different hot chili types in my garden. So I made this very, very hot

[@bobstar2683]

Come for the cooking, stay for the amazing Claire review.
