  • Serves: 4

Ingredients

For Batter

  • 1 1/2 cups flour
  • 1 cup cold water
  • 1/2 cup cornstarch
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder

For Sauce

  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 3 tablespoons white wine
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch

Also Need:

  • 4 -5 chicken tenders (skinless boneless) (or use chicken breast)
  • Broccoli
  • 1 tablespoon ground ginger
  • Oil
  • Sesame seeds

Instructions

  • Heat oil in a deep fryer or pot to 375F.
  • In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, 1/2 cup cornstarch, egg, salt, baking powder and water. Whisk until combined.
  • Chop chicken tenders into bite size pieces. Dip chicken into batter and let sit for about 5 minutes.
  • Once oil is hot, drop chicken pieces (working in small batches), into the hot oil and fry for about 3 minutes, until lightly golden.
  • Continue until all of the chicken is cooked.
  • In a large skillet or a wok, heat 5 tablespoons of oil on medium to high heat.
  • Chop broccoli and add to wok. Cook broccoli for 6-7 minutes or until slightly soft.
  • Broccoli should start to turn a darker shade of green.
  • In a medium bowl, mix together the chicken broth, white wine, sugar, soy sauce, sesame oil, and 2 tablespoons cornstarch. Pour into wok, stir and let reduce until it starts to thicken.
  • Once the sauce has thickened, add in the chicken and gently stir to coat it with the sauce. Heat for about 3-4 minutes. Remove from wok and serve.
