Last Night's Dinner.

I decided to cook my version of General Tso's chicken last night for supper, so my apologies to any who may be offended by this bastardization of a wonderful dish.

Here are my veggies ready for stir-frying.

I partially thawed out my chicken bosoms I bought on sale (And yes, if you haven't figured it out by now, every bit of meat I buy is on sale.), then cubed them INto bite-sized pieces, and I'm marinating them in a mixture of 2 eggs and about 1/3 cup of cornstarch.

Here are most of the ingredients for my sauce: rice wine, corn starch, soy sauce, chili sauce, brown sugar, ginger root, red peppers, and garlic.

Here's my sauce. Then I decided to add a splash of Chardonnay, some white vinegar, and about 3/4 cup of my consomme I made the other week.

I started stir frying the carrots and broccoli first.











Then I added the snow peas, onions,
and celery. Transfer to a bowl and cover.












Now, I've started frying the chicken in small batches.










After frying all the batches of chicken, I add everything back INto the wok.











Then I slowly add in my sauce, stirring constantly. Heat through until sauce has thickened.











I used up the leftover saffraux rice from the other night, added a bit of sliced scallions on top, plated my stir fry and Wallah! Rosie and family (really my family, not my fauxmily) have another delicious meal.
