Schezwan Chicken is inspired by the fiery flavors of Sichuan (Schezwan) cuisine from China. The use of bold spices, red chilies, and garlic makes it a signature dish in Indo-Chinese cuisine.

Indo-Chinese food originated from the Chinese immigrant community in Kolkata, India, who blended their traditional cooking techniques with Indian flavors. The adaptation of Sichuan flavors resulted in the development of the popular Schezwan sauce, which is now widely used in Indian-Chinese cooking.

Unlike the authentic Sichuan dish, the Indian version of Schezwan Chicken is slightly sweeter and tangier, with a unique spice blend to suit Indian palates. Today, it is a staple in Indo-Chinese restaurants and a favorite for spice lovers.
