This was definitely a spicy dish! I did cut back on the oil to 3 Tbs, which was enough in my non-stick skillet. The black bean sauce, chili suace, and black pepper made a tasty combination. I especially enjoyed the cashews and the crunch they added. Those wanting a milder dish could cut back on the dried chilies, chili paste, and/or black pepper. Thanks for posting!
