Directions

  1. 1

    Slice 2 large chicken breasts into fairly large thin pieces.

  2. 2

    Slice 3 spring onions into batons

  3. 3

    Slice 4 garlic cloves

  4. 4

    In a bowl or plate add 3 tbsp cornflour (cornstarch)

  5. 5

    In a bowl add 2 tbsp light soy sauce, 2 tbsp Chinese cooking wine (shaoxing) and a pinch of sugar, mix well.

  6. 6

    Dredge the chicken through through the cornflour and shake off the excess.

  7. 7

    Heat a wok or pan with 5 tbsp oil and once hot add the chicken (may have to do it in batches) and fry for 2-3 minutes until starting to turn golden. Remove with a slotted spoon to a plate lined with kitchen paper. Discard the oil and wipe the wok clean.

  8. 8

    Reheat the wok with 1 tbsp oil and over medium heat add the garlic and spring onions, stir fry for 1-2 minutes until fragrant and be careful not to burn the garlic.

    Add the sauce and the chicken back in and stir fry for 1-2 minutes until the sauce has slightly thickened and everything is nicely coated with the sauce. Serve and enjoy
