Instructions: Cut chicken breasts into very thin 2" by 1-1/2" slices. Combine marinade ingredients in a medium bowl. Add chicken; mix well. Let stand 15 minutes.

Combine ingredients for lemon sauce in a small bowl; mix well and set aside.

Mix flour and cornstarch in a medium bowl. Dip chicken in flour mixture to
coat. Heat 8 cups oil in a wok over medium-high heat to 350 degrees F

(175 degrees C). Reduce heat to low. Carefully lower flour-coated chicken
into hot oil with a slotted metal spoon. Deep fry 30 seconds to a minute, until chicken is light golden. Remove chicken with a slotted spoon, draining
well over wok. Arrange on a platter. Remove oil from wok except 1 teaspoon.

Heat oil remaining in wok over medium heat. Stir Lemon Sauce into hot oil.

Bring to a boil. When sauce thickens slightly, add 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
to make sauce glossy. Stir sauce and pour over chicken. Garnish with lemon
slices and serve immediately.

Makes 4 servings.
