Fireplace Chicken

Fireplace Chicken


1. In a large bowl, combine cornstarch and water into a smooth batter.

2. Add chicken slices and stir to coat thoroughly.

3. In another bowl, combine pepper flakes, garlic, ginger, honey, green onion, sugar and vinegar.

4. In a wok, heat vegetable oil until very hot.

5. Add chicken; stir and cook for a few minutes until the chicken turns golden brown.

6. Remove the chicken, set it aside and allow it to drain.

7. Into a heat-proof container, carefully pour off all the oil from the wok, except one teaspoon.

8. Return the wok to high heat and add the sauce mixture; stir frequently and cook until the sauce begins to caramelize (it will turn a light golden-brown colour; watch carefully and work quickly, because the sugar can easily burn).

9. Add the chicken, and toss to coat well with sauce.

10. Place on a serving plate, and garnish with sesame seeds.
