Not all stir-fries use high heat; this Szechuan-inspired recipe calls for more of a steam-sauté in a covered pan to keep the chicken breast meat from becoming stringy as you cook this 45-minute chicken and peanuts entrée. It has a kick from charred dried chiles, the tingle of Sichuan peppercorns, and a light coating of a subtle sweet-sour sauce.
