General Tso's Chicken

General Tso's Chicken 3 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into chunks 2 cups green onions, sliced 8 small dried chilies, seeds removed Cornstarch slurry 1/4 cup soy sauce, low sodium preferred 1 egg, beaten 1 cup cornstarch Sauce 1/2 cup cornstarch 1/4 cup water 1 1/2 teaspoons fresh garlic, minced 3/4 cup sugar 1/2 cup soy sauce 1/4 cup white vinegar 1/4 cup sherry wine or 1/4 cup white wine 14 1/2 ounces chicken broth Place sauce ingredients in a quart jar with a lid and shake to mix. If you make this ahead of time just refrigerate until needed, shaking it again when you are ready to use it. Mix cornstarch slurry in a large bowl- the mixture will be strange but trust me it works. It will be VERY thick almost paste like. Add chicken pieces to coat. Using a fork remove ONE chicken piece at a time and let the excess mixture drip off. YES even though the mixture has a weird consistency it will not stick like paste and the excess will drip off. Add chicken to the hot (350 degree) oil and fry until crispy. Only cook 7 or 8 chicken pieces at a time. You do not want to lower the temp of the oil by cooking too many at a time. You can use a simple cooking or candy thermometer to judge the temp of the oil. Drain on paper towels. Keep warm-
