Categories     Dinner

Total Time 30 minutes

Prep Time 10 minutes

Cook Time 20 minutes

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound boneless (skinless chicken breast, cut into bite-size pieces)
¼ cup reduced sodium soy sauce (divided*)
¼ cup cornstarch (divided)
1 large egg white
1 (1-inch) piece peeled fresh ginger
2 cloves garlic
2 medium scallions (whites and greens separated)
1 cup reduced sodium chicken broth
1 teaspoon sriracha sauce (plus more for serving)
3 tablespoons hoisin*
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
sesame seeds (for garnish)

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, combine the chicken, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 3 tablespoons cornstarch and egg white. Toss to combine and set aside while you chop the vegetables.
  • Mince the garlic and ginger and chop the scallions. Separate the scallion whites from the greens and set aside greens for garnish.
  • Heat a small sauce pot over medium heat. Add 1 teaspoon of sesame oil, ginger, garlic and scallion whites. Sauté for 1 minute. Add the chicken broth, remaining 2 tablespoons soy sauce, sriracha, and hoisin and whisk to combine. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon cornstarch and whisk sauce until starting to thicken, about 2 minutes. Once thickened, turn heat to low and keep warm while you make the chicken.
  • Heat a large wok or non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. In two batches to prevent sticking, add 1/2 tablespoon of sesame oil then half of the chicken pieces. Cook chicken for 3-4 minutes, or until browned on the edges. Flip chicken and cook an additional 2-3 minutes, or until cooked through. Set aside on a plate and add the remaining oil and chicken as directed.
  • Return the chicken back to the skillet or wok, add the sauce to the skillet and toss to coat. Sprinkle with scallion greens and sesame seeds. Serve immediately with extra sriracha, if desired.

Total Time 40 minutes

Prep Time 25 minutes

Cook Time 15 minutes

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

4 cups peanut oil for frying
2 eggs
1 teaspoon sesame oil
½ cup cornstarch
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
1?½ tablespoons rice vinegar
2 tablespoons rice wine
3 tablespoons white sugar
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon banana ketchup
2 tablespoons peanut oil
6 dried whole red chilies
½ cup diced onion
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon orange zest
2 tablespoons minced green onions
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Heat 4 cups of peanut oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Beat the eggs in a mixing bowl; whisk in 1 teaspoon of sesame oil and the cornstarch. Mix in the chicken until all the pieces are coated with batter. Drop into the hot oil a piece at a time; cook until the chicken is golden brown on the outside and no longer pink on the inside, about 4 minutes. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
  • Stir together the vinegar, wine, sugar, soy sauce, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, and the banana ketchup in a small bowl until smooth; set aside. Heat 2 tablespoons peanut oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Stir in the dried chile peppers and cook for a few seconds until the peppers brighten. Stir in the onion, garlic, and orange zest. Cook and stir until the onion is beginning to brown. Stir in the sauce; bring to a boil before adding the fried chicken. Reduce the heat to medium and stir until the chicken pieces are well coated with the sauce, a few minutes longer. Serve sprinkled with green onions and toasted sesame seeds.
