Really tasty and good with rice or egg noodles. Recipe note - also included is 2 ground star anise, but I could not get the analyser to recognise them.

Ingredients
1 tbsp oil
1 spring onion, sliced diagonally into 1 inch pieces
2 green chili peppers, sliced diagonally into 1 inch pieces
1 tbsp ginger, grated
1 tbsp cooking sherry
2 tbsp soy sauce, light
1 lb chicken breast, diced
1/2 cup chicken stock
1 tbsp soy sauce, light
2 tbsp red wine vinegar
1 tbsp sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tbsp cornflour
Directions
  1. Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces, marinate for 15-20 minutes in ginger, sherry, soy sauce mixture. Cut the spring onion and hot peppers diagonally into 1-inch pieces. Grind anise pepper to powder. Mix chicken stock, soy sauce, wine vinegar, sugar, salt and pepper.

  2. Heat oil. Add the spring onion, and stir fry several seconds. Add the ginger, sherry, soy mixture and chicken to the spring onions and hot pepper, and stir-fry for 1 - 2 minutes more.

  3. Add chicken stock mixture, mix well. Cook over low heat until the chicken pieces are tender. Add cornflour mixed with a little water to thicken.
