Kung Pao Chicken





RECIPE INGREDIENTS





1 1/2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 4), cut into bite size 1/2-inch pieces


5 tablespoons soy sauce


2 tablespoons sherry


1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons cornstarch


2 teaspoons sugar


2 tablespoons white wine vinegar or rice vinegar


2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil


1/3 cup water


2 tablespoons cooking oil


1/2 cup peanuts


4 scallions, white bulbs and green tops cut separately into 1/2-inch pieces


1/4 teaspoon dried red pepper flakes





RECIPE METHOD








In a medium bowl, toss the chicken with 1 tablespoon of the soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of the sherry, and the 1 tablespoon cornstarch.





In a small bowl, combine the sugar, vinegar, sesame oil, water, and the remaining 4 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of sherry, and 2 teaspoons cornstarch.





In a wok or large frying pan, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over moderately high heat. Add the peanuts and stir-fry until light brown, about 30 seconds. Remove from the pan. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Add the white part of the scallions and the red-pepper flakes to the pan and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds. Add the chicken with its marinade and cook, stirring, until almost done, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the soy-sauce mixture and the scallion tops and simmer until the chicken is just done, about 1 minute longer. Stir in the peanuts.





VARIATION
