ALMOND CHICKEN 
1 lb. (3) boneless chicken breasts
1/2 lb. fresh snopeas (1 8-oz. bag, frozen)
3/4 c. peanut oil
1/2 c. slivered almonds
4 green onions, cut in 1-inch pieces
2 tbsp. soy sauce
2 tsp. cornstarch
2 egg whites
1 1/2 tsp. salt

Wash chicken thoroughly in hot water. Cut into bite-size cubes. Mix cornstarch, salt and egg whites together (do not beat egg whites) and add chicken. Mix well and let stand at least 20-30 minutes (or even overnight in refrigerator).

Heat oil and add chicken mixture. Stir fry separating the pieces of chicken as you stir. Remove chicken from pan after a nice golden brown. Add onions and almonds to pan and stir fry. Add soy sauce and chicken and stir. Add snopeas (thaw first if frozen) and stir fry 1 minute. Serve over rice.
