Chicken

Method

Preparation of Chicken

  1. 1

    Marinate Chicken

    In a large bowl, combine the chicken breasts, salt, black pepper, and egg. Mix until the chicken is evenly coated. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Coat Chicken

    After marinating, remove the chicken from the refrigerator. Add cornstarch to the chicken mixture and toss until fully coated.

Cooking Chicken

  1. 3

    Heat Oil

    In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.

  2. 4

    Fry Chicken

    Add the coated chicken to the hot oil in batches, frying until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per batch. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Preparing Sauce

  1. 5

    Make Sauce

    In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sugar, honey, minced garlic, minced ginger, rice vinegar, sesame oil, cornstarch, and water until smooth.

  2. 6

    Cook Sauce

    In the same skillet used for frying chicken, reduce heat to medium. Pour the sauce into the skillet and bring to a simmer, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens, about 2-3 minutes.

Combining Ingredients

  1. 7

    Add Vegetables

    Add bell peppers, broccoli, and carrots to the skillet with the sauce. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

  2. 8

    Combine Chicken and Sauce

    Return the fried chicken to the skillet, tossing to coat in the sauce and vegetables. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.

  3. 9

    Garnish

    Sprinkle with chopped green onions before serving.
