INSTRUCTIONS
Marinate the prepared and cut chicken for 15 to 20 minutes in a mixture of fresh ginger, sherry, and two tablespoons of the soy sauce. Meanwhile, cut the scallion and hot peppers diagonally into 1-inch pieces. Grind the anise pepper to a powder with a mortar and pestle; reserve. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, sauté the prepared scallion and peppers in the olive oil for a few minutes to soften. Add the chicken with its marinade to the skillet and begin to brown it with the vegetables, stir-fry style. When partially cooked, add the rice wine vinegar, sugar, salt, and anise pepper. Continue to stir-fry a few minutes more. Add the chicken broth and mix well. Cover the skillet and continue to cook over a low heat setting until the chicken is tender, about 20 to 30 minutes. Blend the cornstarch with a bit of water and the rest of the soy sauce, and add to the skillet. Stir gently until thickened, about 10 minutes more. Serve warm. Great with plain rice or oriental noodles. Posted to dailyrecipe@recipe-a-day.com by Recipe-a-Day <recipe-a-day@bignetwork.com> on Aug 9, 1999, converted by MM_Buster v2.0l.
