Warm 2 serving dishes, one lined with paper towel, in a 250� o�en. Fill the wok to a depth of 1 1/2 to 2 inches with vegetable oil. Heat the oil to high (400�), or until a day-old cube of bread browns in just und�r 1 minute. Heat another 4 minutes to stabilize the temperature. Put the chicken pieces into the oil one at a time until all are in. Stir-fry 3 minutes. Remove the pieces from the oil, draining well over the wok, and keep warm in the oven on the paper-lined dish. Empty the oil from the wok� Reduce the heat to medium (350�) and stir in Sauce 1. As soon as it bubbles, stir in the chicken.
