Ingredients

1 large egg
1 teaspoon Asian seasoning
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into thin strips
1/4 cup plus 1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
1/3 cup chicken stock
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon dark brown sugar
2 teaspoons lemon zest
1/4 cup peanut oil
1 tablespoon water

1/4 cup finely chopped green onions
2 teaspoons minced ginger
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1/4 cup julienned green onions, garnish
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds, garnish

Directions

In medium bowl,
beat the egg lightly with the Asian seasoning. Place 1/4 cup cornstarch in a shallow dish.
One at a time, dredge the chicken in the cornstarch and dip into the egg wash, shaking to
remove any excess. Dredge again in the cornstarch to lightly coat.

Place on a baking dish and let stand for 5 minutes. Just before cooking, shake off any
excess cornstarch.

In a bowl, make the sauce by combining the chicken stock, lemon juice, soy sauce, brown
sugar, and lemon zest. Set aside.

In a wok, heat the oil over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add the chicken

strips (making sure not to overcrowd the pan.) Fry them for about 3 minutes, until crisp,
turning once. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain them on paper towels. In a small bowl,
dissolve the remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons of cornstarch in the tablespoon of water. Pour
nearly all the oil out of the wok. Add the green onions, ginger, and garlic and stir-fry
for 30 seconds. Add the lemon sauce, stir to combine, and bring to a boil.

Add the cornstarch mixture and cook, stirring, until thick. Return the chicken strips to
the wok and stir-fry until warmed through and married with the sauce, 1 to 2 minutes.

Remove from the heat and divide among 4 plates. Garnish with the julienned green onions
and toasted sesame seeds and serve.
