Instructions

Prepare Ingredients and set aside before cooking:

  • Chicken Marinade: Slice chicken breast in thin strips. Place chicken in a bowl and marinade with the following ingredients: 1 tablespoon ginger minced, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon sugar, 1 teaspoon chicken bouillon, 1 tablespoon corn starch, ¼ cup water, and 1 tablespoon olive oil. Mix well and set aside.
    1 tablespoon ginger, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon sugar, 1 teaspoon chicken bouillon, 1 tablespoon corn starch, ¼ cup water, 1 tablespoon olive oil or neutral oil
  • Separate your egg whites from your egg yolks. Egg yolks are for the fried rice and egg whites are for the white shrimp sauce.
    3 egg yolks, cooked chicken
  • (FOR BOTH SAUCES) Make corn starch slurry by mixing 4 tbs corn starch with ½ cup of water. Give it a stir before adding to the sauces. Use half of the cornstarch slurry for the white sauce and use half of slurry for the red sauce.
  • Cut tomatoes into quarters. Dice ¼ white onion and mince 3 cloves of garlic.

Egg Fried Rice:

  • Heat pan on medium-high heat. Once the pan is very hot, add egg yolks in the pan. Once scrambled for 30 seconds, add the cooked white rice. Add 1 teaspoon salt and 2 teaspoon sugar. Stir for 2-3 minutes and set the fried rice aside.
    1½ teaspoon salt, 2 teaspoon sugar, 1 tablespoon olive oil or neutral oil

White Shrimp Sauce

  • In a pan on medium heat, add 1 cup chicken broth and ½ cup of water and chopped onions. Once the water is boiling, add peas, shrimp and ½ teaspoon salt.
    cornstarch slurry (optional - for a thicker sauce), ¼ white onion, 3 egg whites, 1 cup unsalted chicken broth
  • Since the shrimp cooks so quickly, take out shrimp when it turns orange (1 minute). We will put them back in after the egg whites (step 4).
    ½ cup water, cooked chicken
  • Slowly pour half of your cornstarch slurry in the soup while mixing with the spoon. Continue stirring and boil for a minute and you will see that the sauce has thickened.
    ¼ cup peas
  • Next, pour your egg whites in the soup while continuously mixing with the spoon. Finally, add the shrimp back in and set your white sauce aside.

Chicken Tomato Sauce:

  • Place pan on medium heat and add 1 tbs oil. Add sliced chicken and saute for 2 minutes and take out the chicken.
    1 tablespoon avocado oil or vegetable oil
  • Once you take out the chicken, add 1 tbs oil to the pan (on medium heat). Then, add diced onion and minced garlic. Saute for one minute.
  • Then, add diced tomatoes, 2 tbs ketchup, ½ cup water, 1 teaspoon sugar, ½ teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon chicken bouillon. Mix well and cover for 2-3 minutes until tomatoes are soft. Add sliced chicken back in and cook for one minute. Add ½ teaspoon sesame oil at the end and set aside in another bowl. Optional - add cornstarch slurry for a thicker tomato sauce!
    ¼ white onion, 3 garlic cloves, 2 large tomatoes, ½ cup water, 2 tablespoon ketchup, 1 teaspoon sugar, ½ teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon chicken bouillon

Assembly:

  • Fold foil in half and fold it again in half. Now the foil is more stiff, you can mend it to have the ‘S’ shape.
  • Add fried rice to the plate. Place the ‘S’ foil in the middle. Add the white sauce on the left and red sauce on the right. Serve immediately and enjoy! Note: if your sauces or rice is not warm enough, you can place in an oven or microwave for a few minutes to heat it back up. This is how they do it at hong kong cafes ◡̈
