Ingredients:
- 1 (3 -4 lbs) chicken cut into parts
- 1/2 cup rice wine or white wine vinegar
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 3 Tbsp soy sauce
- 2 Tbsp sherry
- 3 Tbsp catsup
- 2 Tbsp peanut oil
- 6 fresh apricots, halved and pitted (about 10 oz.)
- 2 Tbsp cornstarch
- 1/4 cup water
- 3 green onions, cut into 2-inch lengths, then slivered
Directions:
Cut chicken parts into smaller pieces (about 2 inch), using a cleaver and whacking straight down right through the bone. Combine vinegar, sugar, soy sauce, sherry, and catsup for sauce and set aside.
In a wok or large frying pan, stir-fry chicken over high heat in oil for 10 minutes or until tender and golden brown. Add apricots and stir-fry 1 minute. Pour sauce mixture over chicken and cook, stirring until thickened. Garnish with green onion slivers. Serve with rice, if desired.
