This is real Cantonese cooking—a rich and superbly textured dish without a bit of the glop or goo we associate with Cantonese cooking in America. The chicken is soft and succulent, the chopped nut coating is crisp and flavorful, and the touch of roasted pepper-salt cuts any trace of oil. It is an elegant way to begin a meal and has for years been one of my favorites.
