About Our Salt and Pepper Chicken

Salt and Pepper Chicken is a beloved Szechuan-style favourite, and at The Pink Pearl Restaurant we make it the traditional way: bite-sized pieces of chicken are lightly battered and fried until golden and crackling-crisp, then wok-tossed with a hand-cut blend of garlic, fresh chilies, green onion, and a fragrant salt-and-pepper seasoning.

The result is a dish that's bold, aromatic, and satisfying without being overly heavy — perfect on its own, alongside steamed rice, or as part of our Meal for Two and Meal for Four combo specials. It's a top pick for Chinese food lovers across the Beltline, Mission, and downtown Calgary looking for authentic Szechuan flavour.
