So cut all the veggies and remaining ingredients before coating & frying the chicken. Cut the chicken from the middle, the breast is usually thicker from the top, slice the thicker portion into two thin slices. You will get three slices of the chicken breast. Cut the chicken tender if it is attached to the breast first. Then cut the slices into strips against the fibres. Cut all the pieces similarly & add them into a bowl. Add baking soda and only 2-3 tbsp of water first, then using clean hands stir the chicken vigorously in a circular motion & allow the chicken pieces to absorb the water. This process is called velveting of the chicken. Repeat this process 2-3 times once the chicken absorbs the water. After repeating the process it will look like you have added egg whites to the chicken, it will turn slimy. Once that's done, add salt, white pepper powder, soy sauce, oil & corn flour, mix well to coat the chicken, it only needs a very thin layer of coating. To fry the chicken, heat oil in a kadhai until it gets moderately hot (165° C). Then carefully add the chicken in batches & fry over high flame until it turns light golden brown, it will only take 3-4 minutes for the chicken to cook so do not overcook it. Remove the fried chicken into a sieve & fry the remaining batches similarly. To make a quick stock I usually like to use a stock cube, so just bring some water to a boil in a stock pot & add the stock cube. This also helps to elevate the flavour of the recipe. Make the corn flour slurry by just mixing corn flour & water into a bowl, keep it aside until further use. To make Chilli Chicken, set a wok or a kadhai over high heat & let it get hot. Then add the oil & let the oil heat up as well. Further add, ginger, garlic, coriander stems & stir well, saute over high flame for 2-3 minutes, don't brown the garlic. Next, add the onion & capsicum slices, stir well & sauce for a minute. Then add the stock to make the sauce, if you are making chilli chicken dry add only about 250-300ml of stock and if you are making gravy then add 700-800ml of stock or more according to your preference. Add light & dark soy sauce, vinegar, sugar ,white pepper powder & salt, stir well & bring the sauce to a simmer. Then add the fried chicken, roughly cut fresh coriander & spring onion whites, stir well & coat the chicken. Then add the corn flour slurry gradually while stirring continuously until the sauce becomes thick & coats the chicken. You will need to add more slurry if you are making gravy. Once the desired consistency is achieved, taste & adjust seasoning as required & garnish with spring onion greens.
