LEE LUM'S LEMON CHICKEN

This recipe is from Craig Claibourne's New York Times Cookbook, and I think it's one of the best recipes I've ever tried. It looks beautiful, I love the flavors, and in my opinion, well worth the work. Don't leave out or substitute for the whole bottle of lemon extract added at the very last second; it's what makes the dish. If you cannot find water chestnut flour or powder, you can substitute cornstarch. However, the texture will not be as crispy or nutty.

Steps:

  • Place the chicken breasts in a shallow dish.
  • Combine the soy sauce, sesame oil, salt and gin or vodka, and pour over the chicken; toss to coat and let sit for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 200.
  • Beat the egg whites, drain the chicken (discarding the marinade), and toss to coat.
  • Pour the water-chestnut flour on a plate and dredge chicken completely in the flour.
  • Arrange the shredded lettuce attractively on a platter.
  • To cook the chicken, pour the peanut oil into a skillet (use an electric skillet if you have one) to a depth of 1/2 inch and heat to 350 degrees.
  • Add the chicken in batches, browning one side, then turning to brown the other; drain and keep warm in the oven if necessary.
  • Either while you're cooking the chicken or afterwards (while keeping the chicken warm), in a small saucepan, combine the sugar, rice vinegar, broth, the cornstarch dissolved in the 2 tablespoons water, the msg if desired, the lemon juice and the rind; bring to a boil and stir until thickened.
  • Carefully and neatly slice the chicken crosswise into 1" slices, then using a large spatula, place attractively on top of the lettuce.
  • Add the vegetables and pineapple to the sauce; remove from the heat, stir in extract, pour over the chicken, and serve immediately.

  • Add the lemon juice to the chicken broth and whisk into the saute pan. Reduce heat to a simmer.
  • Return the chiken to the pan to heat through, thickening sauce to desired consistency. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
