3 whole boneless chicken breasts
2 tablespoons light soy sauce

1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
1/2 cup water
1 cup chicken broth
1/8-1/4 cup rice wine vinegar (depending on how sweet you want the sauce)
1/4 cup cornstarch
1 cup sugar (we use 1/2 cup sugar but the orginal recipe called for 1 cup)

1 teaspoon chili paste (or more)
1 garlic clove (minced)
peanut oil (3 1/2-4 cups)

  • To prepare the sauce:.
  • Mix together all of the sauce ingredients. Pour them into a small pot and bring to a boil, stirring continuously. Turn the heat down to low and keep warm while you are deep-frying the chicken.
  • To deep-fry the chicken:.
  • Add the marinated chicken pieces a few at a time, and deep-fry until golden brown. Drain on paper towels and then place chicken in warm oven (130 degrees) while you continue frying. Repeat with the remainder of the chicken. Just before you are finished deep-frying, bring the sauce back up to a boil.
