Lemon Chicken Stir-Fry
(Serves 4)

2 Tbs. soy sauce
1 Tbs. cornstarch
1 lb. skinned and boned chicken breast halves, cut into strips
4 Tbs. fresh lemon juice
2 Tbs. white wine vinegar
1 Tbs. plus 1 tsp. sugar
1/2 tsp. grated lemon rind (optional)
3 Tbs. vegetable oil, divided
3 green onions, sliced
1 red bell pepper, seeded and sliced into strips
1 yellow bell pepper, seeded and sliced into strips
1 clove garlic, minced
Hot cooked rice


Combine soy sauce and cornstarch; stir until smooth. Add to chicken in a zip-lock bag and toss well. Set aside.

Combine lemon juice and next 3 ingredients; stir well and set aside.

Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a wok or large skillet over medium heat until hot. Add green onions, bell peppers, and garlic; cover and cook about 5 minutes. Remove vegetable mixture from wok; set aside and keep warm.

Add remaining 2 tablespoons oil to wok; place over medium heat until hot. Add chicken mixture and stir-fry until done, about 5 minutes. Return vegetable mixture to wok, stir in lemon juice mixture. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 5 minutes. Serve over rice.

I usually double the sauce ingredients.
