Инструкции
- In a heavy bottom saucepan or dutch oven bring 2 inches of oil up to 375* F.
- Meanwhile, prepare rice according to directions substituting chicken broth for water.
- Lightly toss chicken pieces in flour, shaking off excess. Fry in 2 batches until golden brown and extra crispy- about 6 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Fry onion slices in oil until slightly golden- about 2 minutes. Drain on paper towels as well.
- While chicken cooks, prepare the sauce. In a wok or large saute pan, add brown sugar, soy, fish sauce, oyster sauce, chiles, garlic, ginger and half of the water. Bring up to a boil. Combine cornstarch with remaining water and remove pan from heat. Whisk slurry into sauce and return to heat source. Bring back up to a boil and simmer for 1 minute.
