ingredients
directions
1. Mix together the salt, sugar, five-spice powder, soy sauce, shaosing wine, and ginger root in a large bowl. Pound the chicken breasts with the back edge of a cleaver and cut into 1-1/2 by 2 inch pieces. Allow to marinate for an hour, turning from time to time. |
2. Dredge chicken pieces in cornstarch. Heat oil in a wok over high heat to deep-fry temperature. Deep-fry chicken pieces, a few at a time, until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Serve with dipping sauces (I suggest Tonkatsu sauce, Korean Dipping Sauce, and Fish Sauce Seasoned with Lime Juice). |
