Steps:

1. Skin and bone chicken cut in 1-inch cubes. 2. Blend flour, water and salt to a batter. Dip chicken in batter to coat. 3. Heat oil. Add chicken and deep-fry until golden. Drain on paper toweling. 4. Serve with a pepper-salt mix (see Seasonings and Sauces, Basic Pepper-Salt Mix) or sherry-soy dip (see Seasonings and Sauces, Sherry-Soy Dip for Deep-Fried Chicken). NOTE: Although white meat is generally used for this dish, any part of the chicken, boned and cubed, can be used. VARIATIONS: * In step 2, prepare the batter with 1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch, 2 tablespoons sherry and 1/2 tablespoon vinegar. Or omit the batter. Dip chicken cubes instead first in egg white then dredge lightly with cornstarch. The Thousand Recipe Chinese Cookbook. ©1994 by Gloria Bley Miller.
