• 总时间: 30 minutes

配料

1 lb skinless boneless chicken thighs (or with chicken breast)

1/4 cup vegetable oil (or any neutral oil for frying)

1/3 cup cornstarch (or sub with potato starch for coating chicken)

1 green onion (finely chopped (optional for garnish)

1/2 tsp sesame seeds (toasted (optional for garnish)

2 tsp regular soy sauce

1 tsp ginger (peeled & grated)

1/4 tsp white pepper (or black pepper)

3 cloves garlic (minced)

2 tbsp brown sugar (or honey, coconut sugar or white sugar)

2 tbsp regular soy sauce

2 tbsp hoisin sauce

1 tbsp ginger (peeled & grated)

2 tsp sesame oil (toasted)

1 tsp Shaoxing wine (or Dry sherry wine or chicken broth)

1 tbsp cornstarch (or sub with potato starch)

1 tsp red chili flakes (optional for a spicy kick)

1/2 cup chicken stock (low-sodium kind)

步骤

In a small bowl, combine sauce ingredients. Set aside.

Dice chicken thighs into 1.5-inch cubes. Transfer diced chicken pieces into a large bowl. Then mix in the Chicken seasoning ingredients as listed above.

Add cornstarch over the diced chicken and toss with tongs until each piece of chicken is evenly coated.

Heat vegetable oil in a large pan on medium-high heat. Fry chicken in small batches until golden brown and crispy, about 7-9 minutes in total. The internal temperature of cooked chicken should be 165 degrees F with a digital thermometer or until juices run clear. Remove and transfer fried rice on a wire rack or on a paper-towel lined plate. Discard any excess oil in the pan.

Reduce to medium heat, pour prepared sauce into pan. Simmer to thicken.

Once sauce has thickened, toss in cooked chicken. Remove off heat. Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds and enjoy!
