- Cut chicken into small thin strips.
- Lightly salt and pepper these before battering.
- For the batter, mix all ingredients together and add enough cold water to make it smooth and thick. (It should resemble pancake batter).
- Dip chicken pieces into batter and deep fry until lightly golden brown.
- For the sauce, mix all ingredients together and heat over medium heat until thickened, about 5-6 minutes.
- Pour sauce over chicken and serve with thinly sliced onion, bell pepper, carrot, and pineapple chunks.
- Note: The vegetables can be added to the sauce after it has been cooked. I like to put mine on the cooked chicken and then pour the sauce over it. I love the crunch the raw veges give to the dish.
