Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 lb chicken breasts cut into bite sized pieces
- 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
- salt and pepper
- 6 oz asparagus
Turmeric Chicken Batter
- 2 tablespoons all purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 teaspoons ground turmeric
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 ½ teaspoons salt
Black Pepper Sauce
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 3 cloves garlic sliced
- Pinch of red pepper flake
- 3 teaspoons cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons water
- 1 teaspoon rice wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
Instructions
- In a small bowl combine all the ingredients for the chicken batter. Add the chicken breasts and toss to coat all the chicken pieces with the flour mixture. Set aside.
- In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon sesame oil and 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium to medium high heat. Once heated add the chicken breasts and fry for about 3 minutes on each side. After the chicken is cooked, place on a cooling rack. Repeat with remaining chicken.
- While the chicken is cooking combine all ingredients for the sauce in a small bowl and whisk until well combined. Set aside.
- Once the chicken is done, rinse the skillet then add 1 teaspoon vegetable oil and heat over medium heat. Once the oil is heated, add the asparagus with salt and pepper. Cook for 4-5 minutes or until the asparagus is cooked to your desired tenderness. Set aside.
- In a skillet over medium heat add the sauce and stir until it thickens. This should happen very quickly about 10-20 seconds. Once thick, remove from the heat immediately and add the chicken and asparagus and stir until the sauce covers the chicken and asparagus.
