      Title: Judy's Kung Pao Chicken
 Categories: Oriental, Poultry, Vegetables, Nuts, Chilies
      Yield: 4 servings

MMMMM---------------------------SAUCE--------------------------------
      2 tb Bean sauce
      1 tb Hoisin sauce
      1 tb Chile paste w/garlic
  1 1/2 ts Sugar
      1 T  Dry sherry or shao xing
           - wine
    1/4 ts MSG [opt, I do not use]
      1 tb Red wine vinegar
      4 cl Garlic; peeled, flattened
      2 tb To 3 tb chicken stock

MMMMM--------------------------CHICKEN-------------------------------
      1 lb Boned chicken breasts;
           - skinned chicken
      1    Egg white
      2 tb Cornstarch
           Salt
      2 c  Oil
      1 c  Raw, shelled, skinless
           - unsalted peanuts
     12    To 16 hot dried chilies;
           - halved, to taste

  Cut the chicken into very small cubes, and mix with the
  egg white, cornstarch, and salt. Put in fridge for 30
  minutes.

  Combine the sauce ingredients in a bowl and set aside.

  Heat all the oil in a skillet or wok and when itÆs almost
  boiling but not smoking turn the heat off and add the
  peanuts. The peanuts should turn light golden brown from
  the retained heat, but if they donÆt, turn the heat on
  again and cook briefly. Watch carefully, because they can
  burn very fast (and donÆt be surprised to hear them still
  cooking for some time after you remove them!). Drain and
  reserve the oil.

  Heat one cup of the reserved oil in the pan. When the oil
  is hot, add the chicken mixture. Cook quickly, only about
  45 seconds, stirring almost constantly, until the chicken
  becomes translucent. Do not brown. [NOTE - I like and feel
  less paranoid it if it becomes just about brown.] Remove
  the chicken and drain well. Set aside.

  To the still-hot oil add the dried peppers and cook until
  dark (about 15 seconds) and immediately add the sauce.
  Stir, then add chicken and cook another minute. Throw the
  peanuts in, stir about, and then serve. [NOTE - I like to
  top it with chopped green onions.]
