Ingredients
2 whole skinless boneless chicken breasts
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice wine
1/2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons chicken stock
1 1/2" ginger root slice, minced
1 garlic clove; minced
1 egg
1 cup almonds, ground
6 cups peanut oil
Directions
- Pat chicken dry with paper towels, then cut into strips about 1/2 inch wide.
- Prepare marinade by mixing together soy sauce, rice wine, chicken stock, sugar, cornstarch, ginger, and garlic together.
- Coat chicken and marinade for one hour (or more). You may wish to turn chicken periodically to make sure it marinades evenly.
- Remove chicken from marinade and drain on paper towels.
- Beat egg lightly with 1/2 teaspoon water. Dip chicken strips in egg and roll in almonds to coat, then let sit for 15 minutes.
- Heat oil to 350 degrees (F) then fry chicken strips in small batches until crisp and golden brown.
- Be sure to bring oil back up to temperature between batches. Drain on paper towels to remove excess oil and serve.
