Recipe by: The Elegant Entertaining Cookbook by Myra In a glass bowl, place chicken pieces. Combine 1 tablespoon soy sauce and 1 tablespoon 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 tablespoons 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.

Makes 2 servings. 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!
