Here's an oriental style recipe that is a far cry from the horribly sweet dish of the same name that some "Chinese" restaurants offer. This version is adapted from one in 'The New New-York-Times Cookbook'." Lemon Chicken2 Tbsp. dry sherry or saki Crush black beans and put to soak in 1 Tbsp. water. Cut chicken in 1/2" strips. Marinate in wine, soy sauce & cornstarch for 20 minutes. Remove and stir-fry strips quickly in half the hot peanut oil. Remove from pan. Add the other tbsp. oil and the garlic and stir fry for 1 minute, being careful not to brown it. Add marinade, black beans, and rest of ingredients except sesame oil, and bring to a boil. Add chicken and cook over medium heat until sauce is thickened. Sprinkle with sesame oil and serve over rice. Note: Bottles of fermented black beans can be purchased at Oriental grocery stores or online. They have a distinctive flavor and add greatly to this dish.
