Lemon Chicken



Ingredients:
10 oz (.6 lb) skinless, boneless chicken breast/thigh (cut into small pieces)
¼ cup corn starch + ¼ cup all-purpose flour (sifted & combined)
Oil (for deep-frying)
½ ts white sesame

Marinade:
½ tb soy sauce
½ tb Shaoxing wine (optional)
1 tb corn starch

Sauce:
3 tb lemon juice
2 ts sugar
5 tb water
1 ts corn starch
Pinch of salt to taste

Method:
1. Marinate the chicken with the Marinade, for 30 minutes. Mix all the ingredients for the Sauce. Set aside.

2. Coat the marinated chicken with the corn starch and all-purpose flour mixture. Heat up a wok with about two inches of oil. As soon as the oil is fully heated, deep-fry the chicken until golden brown. Transfer the chicken out to a dish lined with paper towels to sock up the excess oil.

3. Add all the ingredients in the Sauce into a small sauce pan and bring it to a quick boil. Transfer the fried chicken into the sauce, stir to coat well with the lemon sauce.

4. Dish out, top with the white sesame, and serve immediately.
