    • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
    • 1/8 tsp freshly-grnd black pepper
    • 1/2 tsp cornstarch
    • 1 lb skinless boneless chicken breast meat cut into 1/2" dice
    • 2 c. vegetable oil
    • 3/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
    • 2 tsp balsamic or possibly black Chinese vinegar

    Directions

    1. To make the marinade: Mix the egg white, sugar, soy sauce, salt, pepper, and cornstarch together in a medium bowl. Add in the chicken pcs and set aside to marinate for 15 min.
    2. When ready to serve, in a medium-sized heavy-bottomed saucepan or possibly wok, heat the oil to 350 degrees. Remove the chicken pcs from the marinade. Deep-fry the chicken pcs for about 1 minute. Carefully pour the chicken and oil into a strainer or possibly colander set over a bowl to drain the oil completely from the chicken. Reserve the oil.
    3. To stir-fry: Heat 2 Tbsp. of the strained oil in a medium-size skillet or possibly wok. Add in the red pepper flakes to flavor the oil and cook for 30 seconds to 1 minute, then add in the chicken, vinegar, soy sauce,and sugar, and heat for 1 minute. Add in the cornstarch mix, bring to a boil, and stir in the peanuts. Transfer the stir-fried chicken to a warmed platter, sprinkle with the coriander, and serve immediately with rice.
    4. This recipe yields 4 servings.
