Lemon & Plum Chicken

This is pretty good and easy to prepare. Try it some day!! :)



From Jo's Deli & Bakery...

Ingredients:
Serves 6
Chicken breasts of 2 chickens

Marinate:
3 tbsp cornstarch
½ tsp salt
½ tsp sesame oil
Dash of pepper
1 egg

Coating:
5 tbsp all purpose flour
5 tbsp breadcrumbs
Oil for deep frying

Sauce:
1 tbsp plum sauce
3½ tbsp lemon juice
2 tbsp vinegar
4 tbsp sugar
2 tsp cornstarch

Method:

Clean chicken breasts and dry with kitchen towels. Marinate with the marinating ingredients for overnight or for at least 2 hours.

Combine all purpose flour and breadcrumbs in a large plate. Heat oil in a wok until bubbles rise rapidly to the oil surface when a wooden spoon is immersed into the oil. Reduce heat to medium. Coat meat with coating mixture and deep fry until golden brown. Place on to double layers of kitchen towel to absorb excess oil.

Chop fried chicken breasts into small pieces. Arrange on a plate.

To prepare sauce, mix all sauce ingredients in a bowl. Heat a pan. Pour in sauce and bring to a boil. Cook sauce until it thickens. Drizzle on to the chopped chicken breasts. Serve hot with white rice.
