Stir Fried Chicken Shreds
Ingredients
1/2 lb. boneless chicken breasts, skinned
1 egg white
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. cornstarch
6 oz. fresh bean sprouts
4 oz. snow peas; trimmed
6 fresh water chestnuts or 4-oz. canned water chestnuts, drained
2/3 C. oil, preferably peanut
1 tsp. salt
Cooking Instructions
Cut the chicken into very thin shreds and combine these with the egg white, salt and cornstarch in a bowl. Mix well and chill in the refrigerator for about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, trim the bean sprouts, finely shred the snow peas lengthwise, and shred or slice the water chestnuts. Heat the oil in a wok or large skillet and when it is almost smoking, add the chicken. Stir-fry quickly for 1 minute. Drain the chicken in a colander or sieve immediately. Pour off the oil, leaving 1 Tbls. in the wok. Reheat the wok and stir-fry the vegetables for 2 minutes. Return the drained chicken to the pan, stir to mix well, and add the salt. Give the mixture a few more stirs and then turn it onto a warm serving platter.
