What is Chili vinegar

Mythreyi Dilip said...

Serrano peppers or Jalapenos are finely cut and soaked in distilled vinegar. You can find this in any Asian markets.

Absolutely wonderful! My family and I loved it! The only modification that I made was to reduce the amount of black pepper. Some of my family members endured the "heat" for this new family favorite.

Thank you! I moved to an area where there is no Panda Express, and I have missed the black pepper chicken so much. I followed your recipe, and it was perfect! Thank you so much.
