Soy Sauce Chicken Fillet Strips (醬油鷄柳)
Posted by Bel.C
Yesterday after workout, I was basically tired. But since there is no more food left, I still have to get our lunch boxes ready for the next day. We have been experiencing and cooking many pork dishes lately, so I was thinking to make Eric’s favorite, the ultimate ingredient of chicken. He loves Chicken more than anything else.
This is the Soy Sauce Seasoned Chicken Fillet Strips. You do not need any more other ingredients for the dish to make it better, just plain and simple soy sauce and some basic seasoning, and the chicken, that’s it. I marinated the chicken strips before I went out, so when I am back I just have to fry the chicken strips and cook a quick sauce for the dish. I added some vegetables to the dish too, it looked so much perfect and complete! And Eric loved it!
Ingredients:
1 lb chicken breast (cut into thin fillet strips)
For the Marinate:
1 tbsp light soy sauce
1 tbsp Shaoxing Wine (紹興酒)
1 tsp sugar
1 egg (beaten)For the Seasoning:
1 1/2 tbsp light soy sauce

1. Cut the chicken fillets into strips, marinate the chicken fillets with marinate seasoning up to 30 minutes.
2. Heat up a pan on medium high heat, add about 5 tbsp oil. Shallow fry the chicken fillets in 2 batches. About 2-3 minutes each side or till they turn golden brown. Drain with paper towel.
