Preparation method: Prepare fresh chicken thighs, clean the chicken thigh bones, cut the chicken into pieces, add egg white cooking wine and soy sauce and starch to marinate, usually about 20 minutes to taste.
To avoid greasy this dish, we also prepared carrots, one on the line, cut into slices, green onions, ginger and garlic, and prepared more, using starch with a bowl of sauce. In addition, mix half a bowl of sweet and sour sauce with tomato sauce and white vinegar and sugar.
Preheat the pan, fry the chicken thighs, then stir-fry the carrots until cooked.
Tips: When frying chicken thighs, first use high heat in the frying pan, after the oil is hot, then change to medium-low heat to fry slowly, put it into the pan a little slower, fry until the chicken thigh skin is crispy, fish it out first, wait for it to be fried, and then go back to the pan to fry it again, fry until the chicken is soft and rotten, you can turn off the heat. If you have people who like to eat older, crisper chicken, you can fry it a little longer.
If the chicken wants to be delicious, it should be marinated in the boiled sauce first, soaked in it all the time, and then taken out when to eat, so that the chicken can still be kept fresh.
