Sticky Chinese Chicken Or Tofu Recipes

Steps:

• Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
• Cut into bite-size chunks.
• Dunk each chicken piece in the egg yolk, followed by the cornflour. Set aside.
• Heat the oil in a deep saucepan until it reaches 190°C (375°F).
• Carefully fry the chicken pieces for around 5-6 minutes, until crispy, slightly golden in colour and cooked throughout.
• Drain onto a plate covered in kitchen roll.
• In a large saucepan over a medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of oil and fry the onions and peppers for 2-3 minutes.
• Stir in the soy sauce, red wine vinegar, tomato paste, sugar, and chicken stock. Cook for a further 2 minutes.
• Add in cornflour paste.
• Mix until the sauce has thickened.
• Stir in the pineapple and chicken until evenly coated with the sauce.
• Serve with rice.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Arrange the chicken thighs in a large roasting tin and slash the skin 2-3 times on each thigh. Mix together the hoisin, sesame oil, honey, five-spice, ginger, garlic and some seasoning. Pour over the chicken and toss to coat - you could now marinate the chicken for 2 hrs, or overnight if you have time. Roast, skin-side up, for 35 mins, basting at least once.
• Stir through the cashew nuts and sprinkle the spring onions over the chicken. Return to the oven for 5 mins, then serve with brown rice.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, mix the soy sauce, sugar, cornstarch, and rice wine. Place the green onion and chicken in the mixture. Allow to marinate at least 15 minutes.
• In a wok over medium-high heat, cook and stir the chicken with the marinade mixture about 5 minutes until almost done. Toss in the garlic, onion, and peppers. Continue to cook and stir 5 minutes, or until vegetables are crisp but tender and chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear.
• Mix the tofu, water, oyster sauce, and chili paste into the wok. Cook and stir until heated through.
