I'm going to show you how to make stir-fry rice with sweet and sour chicken.
If you don't have any leftover cooked rice, start by cooking it.
You can watch my video cooking the 3 most popular Asian rices.
To marinate the chicken, cut the breast in half lengthwise.
Put them in a bowl.
Chop 2 cloves of garlic.
Put half with the chicken.
And keep the other half for the sauce.
Grate a piece of ginger.
Put half tsp with the chicken.
And keep 1 tsp for the sauce.
Then add ¼ tsp of salt,
¼ tsp of ground pepper,
1 tbsp of light soy sauce.
Mix all together.
And let rest while continuing the preparation.
Cut into small chunks.
5 oz of broccoli,
4 oz of red cabbage,
Cut 1 carrot into small cubes.
Mince 1 onion,
1 spring onion,
Beat 3 eggs with a pinch of salt.
To make a sweet and sour sauce, we need 3 flavors.
Sour, for example lemon or vinegar,
Sweet, sugar or honey,
Salty, soy sauce or fish sauce.
To make the sauce, in a bowl put
2 tbsp of light soy sauce,
1 tbsp of sugar,
1 tbsp of rice syrup or honey,
1 tbsp of lemon juice,
¼ tsp of salt,
Some ground pepper,
½ cup of water,
1 tsp of cornstarch,
Mix.
Separate the rice grains to avoid clumps.
Start by stir-fry the rice.
Preheat the pan over high heat.
When it is hot, add 1 tbsp of vegetable oil.
When the oil is hot, add the beaten eggs.
Turn to low heat and stir.
On low heat, we get eggs with a soft texture.
As soon as they are coagulated, keep aside.
Still in the same pan heated over high heat,
put 2 tbsp of vegetable oil.
When the oil is hot, add the onion.
Stir for 30 seconds.
Add the rice,
the carrot,
the red cabbage,
½ tsp of salt,
¼ tsp of ground pepper.
Regularly stir for 3 minutes.
With high heat and contact with the pan,
the aromas and flavors of the ingredients intensify.
Add the broccoli,
the eggs,
1 tbsp of light soy sauce,
1 tsp of dark soy sauce,
1 tbsp of oyster sauce.
Stir for another 3 minutes.
Keep the fried rice warm.
Add 1 egg to the marinated chicken.
Mix well.
Cover each piece of chicken with potato starch.
The thin egg layer allows the starch to adhere.
When cooking, we won't get the crust that stays on the chicken.
On high heat, heat a pan with 1 cm of vegetable oil.
When the oil is hot, place the chicken pieces in it.
Let cook and brown for 6 minutes.
Flip them over from time to time.
Remove them and let them on the rack.
Remove the oil from the pan, leaving about 1 tbsp.
Turn to low heat, add the garlic and grated ginger.
As soon as they start to be golden, add 1 tbsp of Shaoxing cooking wine.
5 seconds later, add the sauce.
Stir.
It thickens in a few seconds.
Put the chicken pieces.
Coat them in sauce.
And turn off the heat.
Cut them into small pieces.
Serve the plates of each guest.
Sprinkle with the spring onion.
You can also pour the remaining sauce over the rice.
Bon appétit!
