Ingredients:

Serving

1 tbsp sherry wine
1 egg white, lightly beaten
1 tbsp cornstarch
2 cups oil
12 dried chilies , torn into several pieces
5 garlic cloves, peeled and halved
5 thin slices ginger
2 red onions, peeled and sliced into eighths
1/4 cup peanuts
1 tbsp sherry wine
1 tbsp vinegar
1 1/2 tbsp dark soy sauce
1 tbsp sugar
1/2 tsp salt

Directions:

Cut the chicken into bite-sized cubes. Mix together the next four ingredients, pour over chicken, and marinate for 30 minutes.
