Preparazione

1. Place the egg in a shallow bowl, the cornstarch in another shallow bowl, and then mix the flour, salt, pepper, garlic salt and paprika into another shallow bowl.

2. Heat oil in a wok or large frying pan until very hot.

3. Dredge chicken in the cornstarch, then dip in egg (make sure all of the chicken is covered in egg wash) and finally dredge in the seasoned flour. Add to the wok and cook for 6-7 mins, turning two or three times during cooking until well browned. You may need to cook in two batches. Remove from pan and place in a bowl lined with paper towels.

4. Add the sauce ingredients to the hot wok, stir and bubble on high heat until the sauce reduces by about a third (should take 2-3 mins). Add the chicken back in and toss to coat. Cook for 1-2 mins.

5. Top with green onions and sesame seeds.

6. Serve with rice and steamed broccoli YUMMM!
