Mixing the Sauce and Pouring Over the Chicken

Heat a wok, add the sesame oil and heat to 50% hot. First add the chopped dried chili and chopped green onion and stir-fry briefly, then add the soy sauce, fine salt, vinegar, MSG, and 50 ml chicken broth. Bring to a boil to form the sauce. Pour half of the sauce into a bowl and pour the other half over the chicken strips. Serve on a plate when ready to eat.
