Ingredients
- 3 chili peppers (dried hot)
- 2 garlic (cloves)
- 1 egg (white)
- 1 gingerroot
- 270 gr chicken breasts (boneless)
- 240 ml vegetable oil
- 45 ml soy sauce
- 16 ml wine vinegar (white)
- 16 ml wine (white)
- 14 gr brown sugar
- 8 gr cornstarch
- 5 ml sesame oil
- 3 gr cornstarch
- 1 gr salt
In a glass bowl, place chicken pieces. Combine 1 tbls. soy sauce and 1 tbls. cornstarch. Blend in beaten egg white. Pour over chicken and toss to coat well. Marinate in refrigerator for 1 hour. In a small bowl, combine remaining soy sauce, vinegar, white wine, and 1 tsp. cornstarch; mix until smooth. Stir in sugar, sesame oil and salt. In a wok heat oil. Deep-fry chicken, a few pieces at a time, about 1 minute, or until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towel. Pour all but 2 tbls. oil out of wok. To the wok, add chili peppers, garlic and ginger; stir-fry 1 minute. Pour sauce mixture into wok and cook, stirring, about 1 minute, until thickened. Return chicken pieces to wok. Mix well and serve immediately. I like to serve this with rice and Sauteed Snow Peas and Red Peppers. The chicken is spicy hot with the dried chili peppers, so adjust to your taste. Enjoy!
