Ingredients
  • 3-4 chicken breasts
  • 1 cup Crisco® Oil 250 mL
  • 3 tbsp Crisco® Oil 45 mL
  • 1 small onion
  • 1 dried hot red pepper
  • 1 egg (beaten)
  • 2 tbsp chopped green shallot onions 30 mL
  • 1 clove garlic
  • ½ tsp salt 2.5 mL
  • 2 tsp sugar 10 mL
  • ¾ cup water 190 mL
  • 1 tsp tomato paste 5 mL
  • 1 tsp white vinegar 5 mL
  • 4 tsp cornstarch 20 mL
  • 1 tsp Chili Garlic sauce 5 mL
  • 1 tsp Chee Hou sauce 5 mL


  1. Cut chicken breast into thin slices (approx 1/4 of inch thick). Then add salt and beatened egg, and mix well.
  2. Sprinkle cornstarch over the chicken slices
  3. Heat Crisco® Oil in frying pan over medium heat until oil is hot. Add chicken to frying pan and ensure there is enough oil in the pan to cover the sliced chicken.
  4. Once chicken is golden brown in colour remove from pan, strain the oil, and set aside in a bowl. Drain remaining oil.
  5. Add remaining 3 tbsp of Crisco® Oil to the frying pan. Add garlic clove, onion cubes, and dried hot pepper and stir until the onion cubes are half cooked. Add remaining ingredients and stir until the sauce bubbles.
  6. Add fried chicken slices to pan and stir well.
