Steps:
- Add the soy sauce, vinegar, brown sugar, hoisin, garlic powder, ginger and red pepper flakes to a bowl and whisk to combine.
- Whisk together the water and cornstarch in a separate small bowl until the cornstarch is dissolved.
- Add the cornstarch mixture to the soy sauce mixture and whisk well to combine. Set aside.
- Pour about 3 inches of oil in a Dutch oven, attach a fry thermometer, and let heat to 350 F degrees.
- Add the flour, salt and pepper to a shallow bowl and whisk to combine.
- Add the eggs and a splash of water to a shallow bowl and beat to combine.
- Dredge a chicken tender in the flour, pressing to adhere. Shake off excess flour and coat in the egg mixture. Let the excess drip off and coat in the flour again. Place on a sheet pan while you continue coating the rest.
- Fry the chicken in batches until golden brown and cooked through, about 6 - 8 minutes. Drain on a paper towel lined plate.
- Give the reserved sauce mixture a good whisk and pour into a large nonstick skillet. Cook over medium heat until thickened, about 2 - 3 minutes.
- Add the chicken tenders to a large bowl and pour the sauce over.
- Gently toss to coat. Transfer the chicken tenders to a serving platter and garnish with sesame seeds.
GENERAL TSO'S CHICKEN
There's been a lot of rumor about the origins of this dish; I'll let others fight it out and just focus on its deliciousness! I think that the human palate is drawn to the combination of savory, sour, sweet, salty and spicy. I think that's why we all love this dish. There's a huge difference between the popular sambal oelek and Chinese chili garlic sauce. Sambal is very easy to find but it's twice as hot as chili garlic. So, if you are using sambal, use half the amount.

Steps:
- For the chicken: Place your broccoli florets in a medium bowl and add 2 tablespoons water. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave for 2 minutes, until tender. Drain and set aside until ready to use.
- Heat the oil in a 4-quart (3.8-liter) Dutch oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) using a frying thermometer. Rinse the chicken in cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Mix 1 1/2 cups (335 grams) of the tempura flour and 1 cup (240 milliliters) water into a thick batter. It should look like thick pancake batter. Dredge the chicken cubes in the 1 cup (223 grams) of tempura flour and then coat them in the batter. Fry them in two batches until golden brown and crispy, 6 to 8 minutes. Drain the chicken on paper towels or a rack.
- Heat a wok or large skillet to high and add 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) of oil. When you see the first wisps of white smoke, stir in the fried chicken, onion, chiles, broccoli, and 1/3 of the ginger and garlic and cook them for about 30 seconds.
- For the sauce: While the chicken cooks, add the oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, chili garlic sauce, sugar, white vinegar, soy sauce, cornstarch slurry, red food coloring if using, 1/3 cup water and the remaining chopped ginger and garlic into a 1-quart (946-millileter) saucepan and bring the heat up to medium. Whisk gently as it comes to a simmer. Allow it to simmer and keep whisking it for about 5 minutes, until the sauce thickens. Remove from the heat and reserve it.
- Stir in the sauce and allow it to coat the chicken and simmer. Cook it, folding all the ingredients until they are well coated, about 2 minutes. Garnish with the scallions.

Steps:
- Put the marinade ingredients in a bowl. Add the chicken and stir well to combine all the flavors; cover, and marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
- Heat 2 inches of peanut oil in a wok or deep skillet to 375 degrees F. Mix the egg, cornstarch, water, and sesame oil in a large bowl until smooth and season with salt and pepper. Add the marinated chicken and coat it well with the batter. When the oil is hot, cook the chicken pieces in batches until they are browned and crisp, about 4 to 5 minutes per batch. Drain on paper towels. When you have fried all the chicken, pour off all but 2 tablespoons of oil. Over high heat, add the chilies, scallion, garlic, ginger, and orange zest. Stir-fry for 1 minute then pour in the soy sauce, chicken stock, vinegar, and honey and bring it to a boil. Mix the remaining 2 tablespoons cornstarch with 2 tablespoons cold water until smooth. Pour the slurry into the boiling sauce, in 2 additions, until the sauce thickens. Add the chicken pieces and cook until they are heated through, about 2 more minutes. Garnish with scallions and cilantro leaves. Serve with white rice.

This is the classic that is so popular in Chinese restaurants. Banana sauce can be found in Asian stores. It is made in the Philippines. If you can't get it substitute ketchup.

Steps:
- Heat 4 cups of peanut oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Beat the eggs in a mixing bowl; whisk in 1 teaspoon of sesame oil and the cornstarch. Mix in the chicken until all the pieces are coated with batter. Drop into the hot oil a piece at a time; cook until the chicken is golden brown on the outside and no longer pink on the inside, about 4 minutes. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
- Stir together the vinegar, wine, sugar, soy sauce, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, and the banana ketchup in a small bowl until smooth; set aside. Heat 2 tablespoons peanut oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Stir in the dried chile peppers and cook for a few seconds until the peppers brighten. Stir in the onion, garlic, and orange zest. Cook and stir until the onion is beginning to brown. Stir in the sauce; bring to a boil before adding the fried chicken. Reduce the heat to medium and stir until the chicken pieces are well coated with the sauce, a few minutes longer. Serve sprinkled with green onions and toasted sesame seeds.

Steps:
- For the chicken, mix the egg white with the potato flour in a bowl, then add the soy sauce, Shaohsing wine (or sherry) and the chicken. Turn the chicken over to coat it.
- For the sauce, mix together the tomato purée, 2-3 tbsp water, potato flour, soy sauces, rice vinegar, sugar and Shaohsing wine and set this aside. Snip the chillies into 5cm lengths, discarding the seeds.
- Heat the oil in a wok and cook the garlic, ginger and chillies over a medium heat until they're aromatic and beginning to soften, but not brown.
- Mix the cornflour and plain flour for the coating with salt and pepper and tip into a broad shallow bowl. Working with one piece of chicken at a time, dip it in the flour mix and set the pieces onto a tray.
- Pour enough oil into a deep pan to come 8cm up the sides. Heat until it reaches 200C (if you drop in a test piece of chicken, it should sizzle straight away). Carefully add half the chicken pieces and fry until they're crisp and golden - agitating the pieces to make sure they don't stick together - about 4 mins. Lift the pieces out with a slotted spoon onto a double layer of kitchen paper. Repeat with the rest of the chicken.
- Heat the wok, add the sauce mixture to the garlic, ginger and chillies in there and cook, stirring, until the mixture bubbles and thickens. Add the chicken and half the spring onions and warm everything through. Serve with the sesame seeds and the rest of the spring onions scattered on top. This doesn't give you huge servings so it's best to offer another dish with it, as well as boiled rice.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Place chicken tenders on a rimmed baking sheet and transfer to oven. Bake until very crispy and golden, about 10 minutes beyond recommended bake time on the package. Reduce heat to 200 degrees F to keep tenders warm until ready to serve.
- Meanwhile, fill a medium pot fit with a steamer insert with 1-inch of water. Place over medium-high heat and when water boils, add broccoli and season with salt. Cover, and steam until broccoli is tender, about 8 minutes. Keep warm.
- Place cornstarch in a medium bowl. Add rice wine vinegar, soy sauce, honey, chile flakes, and 3 tablespoons water and whisk to combine. Set aside. Place a small skillet over medium heat and add sesame oil. When shimmering, add garlic and ginger and saute until softened, about 2 minutes. Add cornstarch mixture and cook, whisking constantly, until mixture comes to a boil and thickens, about 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and keep warm.
- Remove chicken tenders from oven and transfer to a large mixing bowl. Add the broccoli, sauce, and toss to coat. Serve with white rice on the side, topped with scallions and toasted sesame seeds.
