Directions
ACCOMPANIMENT IF DESIRED
In a small bowl combine soy sauce, Sherry, brown sugar, garlic, gingerroot, and salt and pepper to taste and stir until sugar is dissolved. Gently pound chicken between 2 sheets of plastic wrap until about ¼ inch thick.
In a large sealable plastic bag marinate chicken in soy sauce mixture, turning occasionally, 25 minutes.
In a heavy skillet heat oil over moderate heat until hot but not smoking.
Remove chicken from marinade, letting excess drip off and reserving marinade, and cook until browned and cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Transfer chicken to a plate and keep warm. Pour reserved marinade through a sieve into skillet and boil until reduced to about 2 tablespoons.
Drizzle chicken with sauce and serve with sesame vegetables. Serves 2 Typed in MMFormat by cjhartlin@... Source: The Best of Gourmet Posted to MM-Recipes Digest V4 #8 by "Cindy Hartlin" <cjhartlin@...> on Feb 16, 1999
