INSTRUCTIONS
Prepare a sweet-and-pungent sauce (see recipes for "Sweet-and-Pungent Sauces" in this cookbook). Keep warm in its saucepan. Skin and bone chicken; then shred. Sprinkle with salt; let stand a few minutes. Beat egg. Dip chicken in egg; then dredge lightly in cornstarch. Heat oil. Add chicken and stir-fry until it loses its pinkness (about 1 minute). Transfer chicken to sweet-and-pungent sauce and stir in over medium heat to cook through and blend flavors (about 2 minutes). Serve at once.
