Steps:
- Stir cornstarch into slightly beaten egg until well combined
- Add chicken pieces, stir to coat
- Heat oil in a wok over medium-high heat until just below smoking
- Shallow-fry the coated chicken in several batches until golden brown, turning if necessary, then remove to drain on absorbent papers
- Leave about 2 tsp hot oil in the wok, stir fry ginger and chilli for 30sec, until fragrant
- Add onion slices, continue to saute another 1-2mins, until onions are soft
- Add garlic and stir fry for another minute
- Add the carrot matchsticks, continue to cook until they're semi-tender
- Stir in chicken pieces and saute for 1 minute
- Add in the sauce mixture, adding chicken stock/water when necessary, depending how much sauce you like
- Finally, add the green pepper and shitake mushrooms and cook for another minute
- If you feel that the sauce is too thick, add more stock or water; if too thin, thicken with cornstarch slurry (1 tsp cornstarch dissolved in 1 TB cold water)
- Garnish with fresh cilantro and/or sliced green onions before serving with jasmine rice

[email protected]This dish was amazing! The chicken was so tender and juicy, and the sauce was the perfect balance of sweet, sour, and spicy. I will definitely be making this again!

[email protected]Overall, I thought this dish was pretty good. The chicken was tender and the sauce was flavorful, but it was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I will try adding less sugar next time.

[email protected]This dish was too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. I think I will try making it again with less chili peppers next time.

[email protected]This dish was easy to make and so flavorful! I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts and they cooked perfectly in the sauce. I also added some extra vegetables, like carrots and snow peas, to make it even more colorful and nutritious.
