Instructions: Prepare sauce by heating 1 tablespoon of oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sliced green onions. Add tomato sauce and water quickly before the garlic burns. Add sugar, chili garlic sauce and soy sauce and bring to a boil. Simmer 5 to 6 minutes or until sauce thickens, then turn off the heat.

Prepare the chicken by heating 1/2 cup oil in a wok over medium heat. Slice chicken breast fillets into bite-size pieces.

Combine beaten egg with milk in a medium bowl. Pour the flour into another medium bowl. Coat chicken pieces by dropping them into the flour a few at a time, then into the egg/milk mixture and back into the flour. Arrange coated chicken on a plate until all chicken is coated.

When oil in the wok is hot, add about half of the chicken to the oil and cook for a couple minutes or until brown on one side, then flip the chicken over. When chicken is golden brown, remove the pieces to a rack or paper towels to drain. Repeat with the remaining chicken. When all of the chicken is cooked rinse the oil out of the wok with water and place it back on the stove to heat up.

When wok is hot again add julienned orange peel and chicken. Heat for 20 to 30 seconds or so, stirring gently. Add sauce to the pan and cook for about 2 minutes. Stir dish a couple times but do it gently so you dont knock the coating off the chicken. Cook until the sauce thickens then serve up the dish with white or brown rice on the side.

This recipe yields 3 to 4 servings.

Comments: Cloning the addicting sweet sauce, which gets a spicy zing from chili garlic sauce, is the key to recreating the flavors that hook diners at Americas hippest Chinese bistro chain. Youll find chili garlic sauce near the Asian foods in your supermarket - the rest of the sauce ingredients includes common stuff. Slice the orange peel into thin julienne strips before adding it to the dish. Since the flavor from the peel is so strong, we wont need to add it until the end. Cook up some white or brown rice to serve alongside this dish and get the chopsticks ready.
