| Ingredients: 4 c. peanut oil for frying 1 1/2 lb. boneless chicken breast (dark meat also may be used) 1/2 c. reduced-sodium soy sauce 1 c. low-sodium chicken broth 1/2 c. sugar 2 tsp. oyster sauce 1 tsp. hoisin sauce 2 tsp. white wine 3/4 tsp. minced fresh garlic 1 tsp. white vinegar 1/2 tsp. chili paste 3 tbsp. toasted sesame oil 5 tbsp. sherry 6 tbsp. cornstarch |

Directions: Place peanut oil in wok or deep-fat fryer and heat over medium-high heat. Trim fat off chicken breasts and cut lengthwise into 1/2 inch wide strips. Combine sauce and set aside. In a medium-size bowl, combine sesame oil, sherry and cornstarch for chicken coating. Toss chicken strips in coating ingredients. When oil reaches 370 degrees or a haze forms above it, deep-fry chicken until tinged light golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from oil with a slotted spoon and allow to drain on several thicknesses of paper towels. Pour oil out of wok; a small amount will remain. Replace over medium- high heat. Add sauce mixture and stir 20 seconds. Add cooked chicken and stir-fry about 10 seconds longer to warm and meld flavors. Serve immediately with steamed rice. |

Interesting Facts: Hot tea vs. Soda
In the traditional Chinese culture, cold beverages were considered harmful to the digestion of warm food. Most people usually drink tea or hot water. Today, due to the influence of the Western world, soft drinks, beer and cold juices accompany meals in China.
