Instructions
Preparing the Chicken
Remove the bones, skin, and silverskin from the chicken. Soak in clean water for 2 hours, then drain, rinse, and cut into 5mm cubes.
Marinating the Chicken
Place the chicken cubes in a porcelain bowl. Add 10 g cooking wine, 1.5 g salt, 2.5 g MSG, and 15 g cornstarch. Mix by hand and marinate for 20 minutes to let the flavors develop.
Preparing the Sauce
Combine 15 g cooking wine, chicken stock, 4 g salt, sugar, vinegar, MSG, and 10 g cornstarch in a bowl. Stir well to make a starchy sauce.
Stir-Frying the Chicken
Heat a wok and add the soybean oil. When the oil reaches about 60% hot (around 150°C / 300°F), add the chicken cubes and use a ladle to spread them out. Remove and drain, then pour the remaining oil into an oil container.
Final Stir-Fry
Leave a small amount of oil in the wok and heat. Add the scallion segments, minced ginger, and minced garlic, then stir-fry until fragrant. Add the fried chicken cubes, pour in the sauce and stir-fry a few times, then add the chili oil and toss until evenly coated. Serve.
