Singing Chicken

Singing Chicken

This is a Vietnamese dish, and is definitely for those who enjoy breathing fire. This dish will have you sweating halfway through the meal! Broccoli goes nicely with this. Note: Cutting the chicken is easiest if the meat is half-frozen. Ingredients: 2 to 3 tablespoons vegetable oil, preferably peanut 1 tablespoon grated gingerroot 1 teaspoon minced garlic or 2 cloves garlic,crushed 1-1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut crosswise into thin slices* 2 tablespoons Splenda 1/4 cup soy sauce 1 teaspoon fish sauce 3/4 cup dry white wine 1 fresh jalapeno, or 2 or 3 little red chilies, finely minced 1 teaspoon pepper Guar or xanthan

Directions:

Have the chicken sliced, the ingredients measured, the pepper minced and everything standing by and ready to go before starting to cook -- once you start stir-frying, this goes very quickly. Put a wok or heavy skillet over high heat. Add the oil, let it heat for a minute or so, then add the ginger and garlic. Stir for one minute to flavor the oil. Add the chicken, and stir-fry for 1 to 2 minutes. Add the Splenda, soy sauce, fish sauce, white wine, jalapeno and pepper, stirring often, for 7 to 8 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through. Thicken pan juices very slightly with guar or xanthan and serve. Yield: 3 or 4 servings. Assuming 4 servings, each will have 4 grams of carbohydrates, a trace of fiber and 39 grams of protein. http://www.fitnessandfreebies.com/lowcarb/smchicken.html
