4 lbs. lean de-boned chicken
1/2 c. vegetable oil
Chinese parsley for garnish

MARINADE:

3 tbsp. flour
2 cloves garlic
1 tbsp. sugar
1/4 c. Hoisin sauce
1/2 c. green onions, minced
1/2 c. chicken stock
1/4 tsp. black pepper
2 tbsp. oyster sauce
2 tbsp. dry sherry
2 tsp. grated ginger

Combine all marinade ingredients and mix well. Cut chicken into bite- size pieces and marinate for at least 15 minutes. Heat oil in wok over high heat, then stir-fry for about 2 minutes while chicken sizzles. Lower heat and add the marinade. Cook for 5 to 6 minutes longer. Remove to serving platter and garnish with parsley. Serve hot.
