We love the Chicken with Three Pepper from Sho Spicy in Sandy Springs. The dish has lots of kick, and we are addicted to the zesty flavors. It would be great to make this at home when we are craving a dish with some heat. — Julie Rosenkranz, Sandy Springs
Sho Spicy offers three ways to enjoy its Three Pepper dish: with chicken, beef or shrimp. As our reader says, it’s a dish with lots of kick from all the peppers used in the preparation. At the restaurant, this recipe yields one serving, but we’ve suggested it would serve two.
Keep the seeds in your jalapenos or remove them, depending on your level of heat tolerance. The pickled hot peppers are pao jiao, a Sichuan pickled pepper packed in brine, and are available at stores carrying Chinese groceries. And despite the name of the dish, there are actually four peppers when you count the coarsely ground black pepper that seasons the dish.
