1 lb boneless chicken breast, pounded flat and cut into smaller pieces
1 egg white
1 T cornstarch
oil for deep-frying
1/2 lb asparagus, cut diagonally into 2 inch pieces
1 red bell pepper, seeded and cubed

Combine for sauce:

3 T oyster sauce
1 T light soy sauce
1 T sherry

Instructions:

Mix cornstarch and egg white to form a pasty sauce. Add cut-up chicken, mixing by hand to combine. Let sit 30 minutes.

Heat several cups of oil in wok. When oil is hot, add chicken, cooking
