Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:



3/4 lb Chicken breast
- skinless, boneless
1 tb Rice wine or dry sherry
1 tb Light soy sauce
1/2 ts Salt
1 sm Green bell pepper
1 sm Red bell pepper
1 Carrot
2 Scallions
1 Egg, beaten
2 tb Cornstarch
2 c Oil, preferably peanut
3 oz Canned leches, drained, or:
1 -fresh orange in segments

---------------------------SAUCE--------------------------------
2/3 c Chicken stock
1 tb Light soy sauce
1/2 ts Salt
1 1/2 tb Chinese white rice vinegar
- or: cider vinegar
1 tb Sugar
1 tb Tomato paste
1 ts Cornstarch
1 ts Water

CUT THE CHICKEN INTO 1-INCH cubes. Put the cubes into a bowl together
with the rice wine or sherry, 1 tablespoon of light soy sauce and 1/2
teaspoon salt, and marinate for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, cut the green
and red peppers into 1-inch squares. Peel and cut the carrots and
scallions into 1-inch chunks. (The uniform size of meat and
vegetables adds to the visual appeal of the dish.) Bring a pot of
water to a boil and blanch the carrots in it for 4 minutes, then
drain and set aside. Mix the egg and cornstarch in a bowl until they
are well blended into a batter. Lift the chicken cubes out of the
marinade, put them into a batter and coat each piece well. Heat the
oil in a deep-fat fryer or large wok until it is almost smoking.
Remove the chicken pieces from the batter with a slotted spoon and
deep-fry them. Drain the deep-fried chicken cubes on paper towels.

TO MAKE THE SAUCE: Combine the chicken stock, soy sauce, salt,
vinegar, sugar and tomato paste in a large saucepan. Bring it to a
boil. Add all the vegetables, but not the leches or oranges, and stir
well. In a small bowl, blend together the cornstarch and water. Stir
this mixture into the sauce, and bring it back to a boil. Turn the
heat down to a simmer. Add the leches or oranges and chicken cubes.
Mix well, then turn the mixture onto a deep platter. Serve at once.
