Method
Step 1: Season the chicken with salt overnight or 30 minutes before cooking.
Step 2: Boil water in a sauce pan over a high heat. Once boiling, add a pinch of salt followed by the chicken legs, ensuring the water covers the chicken. Put the lid on and let it simmer for 30-40 minutes until they are cooked thoroughly. (Tip: you can use a meat thermometer to check the internaltemperature. Aim for 77-79°C, so it is completely off the bone).
Step 3: Remove the chicken legs from the pot and pat them dry with kitchen towels. Set aside to cool before shredding with two forks or your fingers.
Step 4: Add Sichuan peppercorn oil in a pan over a medium heat. Add the crushed dry chillies along with the seeds and keep stirring for 3-5 minutes before removing from heat.
Step 5: Combine the ingredients in the sauce mix and the fried chillies in a mixing bowl.
Step 6: Add the shredded chicken into the mixing bowl and give it a good toss.
Step 7: Cook the noodles as per pack instructions.
Step 8: Place the noodles on a plate, followed by the shredded chicken. Garnish with coriander, sprinkle with crushed peanuts.
