  • 1lb/450g chicken breast or thighs skinless, boneless cut into small chunks
  • 1 egg white
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp garlic minced
  • 1 tbsp ginger minced
  • 1/4 cup corn starch
  • 1cup/250ml chicken broth

Instructions
 

  • In a bowl, mix chicken, egg white, 1 tbsp soy sauce, ginger and garlic. Add 1/4 cup cornstarch. Mix well and set aside for 15 minutes
  • Heat vegetable oil in a pan to shallow fry chicken. When oil is hot, add chicken pieces and fry until golden brown on both sides. Drain chicken on a paper towel lined plate.
  • After draining chicken, remove all but 1 tbsp oil from pan. Add broccoli to pan and cook for just a minute until bright green. Add broth, sriracha, 1/4 cup soy sauce and honey. Mix 1 tbsp cornstarch with a few tbsps water to make a slurry. Add to pan and stir well. When sauce thickens, add chicken and mix. Serve over hot rice.
  • Before adding chicken to sauce, taste and add more sriracha if you wish. If you want a less salty dish, use a little less than 1/4 cup soy sauce and add more to taste.
