Chicken Manchuria (Dry)

Chicken Manchuria is like a cousin sister to Chicken 65. Though this recipe is similar to my chicken 65 version, the addition of soy-sauce, red chili sauce gives the twist of Chinese and this falls in Indo-Chinese Recipes Category. This a quick recipe to surprise those unexpected guests. Have fun, Here is the recipe, Enjoy!
Chicken Manchuria

Boneless Chicken - 1/2 kg

Method:

  1. Wash and pat dry the chicken, cut into medium pieces and take it in a medium bowl. add salt, pepper and mix well. add egg white and coat well. Now add Flour and corn starch. Add some water as required to make it like a batter.
  2. Heat the oil in Kadai or non-stick deep pan. Once the oil is hot drop this chicken carefully and fry them until golden color. Keep these aside.
  3. Add Oil in a non stick pan, once the oil is hot, add garlic and ginger, green chili. Fry for 1 min, Add Chopped Bell Pepper and add soy-sauce, red chili sauce, tomato sauce. Add the Corn starch to make it little thick consistency and then add Honey. 
  4. Now add the fried chicken to Manchuria sauce and give it a gentle coat and top with spring onions. 


Switch off the flame and Transfer it to platter and serve hot!

Tips:

  • For Manchuria sauce always stir-fry on high.
  • Honey gives that soft taste and nice shining coat to chicken.
  • For this recipe marinating chicken is not necessary as all the flavor comes from the Manchuria Sauce.
