INSTRUCTIONS
MARINADE
SAUCE
Mix chicken shreds with marinade mixture. Mix sauce ingredients and set
aside. Cut up onions and assemble remaining ingredients. Heat 1 1/2 cups
oil in wok just until smoking. Add chicken and stir constantly with large
chopstick or wooden spoon until shreds separate and turn white. Remove
chicken with slotted spoon and place in bowl until ready to use. Pour off
all but 2 Tbsp of the oil from the wok. Heat oil until smoke appears. Add
onions, ginger, and garlic, and stir-fry until onions soften, about 2
minutes. Add chicken and toss together thoroughly. Stir sauce and pour into
the wok. Stir together until well coated. Add sesame oil, turn off heat,
and stir well. Remove from wok and serve immediately.

“We need to discover all over again that worship is natural to the Christian, as it was to the godly Israelites who wrote the psalms, and that the habit of celebrating the greatness and graciousness of God yields an endless flow of thankfulness, joy, and zeal. #J.I. Packer”
