Sweet Fire Stir-Fry

This is my version of Panda Express's Sweet-Fire Chicken.  It's even better than Panda's.  I always make a lot so I have to have a helper or it just takes too long to coat the chicken and if it doesn't get fried right away after it's coated it's not as crispy.  This is a little spicy.  Super yummy!


Recipe:

2 lb meat (chicken breast, shrimp, beef)
2 egg
1/2 C water
2 C AP flour
2 tsp salt
2 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp pepper
5 garlic cloves, minced
1 red bell pepper, cubed
½ sweet onion, thinly wedged
2 C fresh pineapple chunks
Oil
Dana's Sweet Chili Sauce (1 recipe)

Slice and cut meat in small pieces. Whisk eggs and water. Mix flour, salt, onion powder, garlic powder and pepper in plastic bag. Shake chicken pieces to coat. Dip pieces in egg coat and then shake or coat in flour mixture again in small batches to thoroughly coat with flour. Place meat pieces separately on a plate. Do not double stack. Heat about 2 inches of oil in wok over medium heat. When the oil is ready, deep fry meat in small batches until lightly browned and then drain on wire rack.

After all the meat nuggets are cooked, clean out wok, add 1-2 Tbs oil to wok over high heat. Saute garlic, pepper and onion for 1 minute. Add pineapple, meat and sweet chili sauce and heat through. Serve immediately.
