Yet another recipe from Diana Liu's 1965 cookbook given to me by my Dad that year. We cooked nearly every recipe and had a great time!
Ingredients:
1 whole boneless skinless chicken breast, shredded
1 tablespoon sherry wine
1 egg white
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper (i use white pepper)
1 teaspoon cornstarch
5 tablespoons oil
1 teaspoon msg
1/2 lb fresh string bean, french cut (can use 10 oz. frozen beans)
1/4 cup water
Directions:
1. Mix cornstarch, egg white, sherry, 1 teaspoons salt, pepper and shredded chicken. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a pan until hot. Add beans; stir-fry with 1 teaspoons salt and msg for 2 minutes. Add water and cook 3 minutes more; remove from pan; set aside. Heat 3 tablespoons oil in the pan until hot. Stir-fry chicken for 3 minutes. Add string beans and stir-fry for 2 more minutes. Serve hot. This is good with steamed rice.
