I did use a recipe for quantities, and utilized cornstarch as a thickener.
First, I marinated the chicken in a mixture of soy sauce, rice vinegar, white wine vinegar, crushed red pepper and a combination of cornstarch and water for 45 minutes. The cornstarch helps coat the chicken. In a large skillet, I cooked the chicken until it was no longer pink, then added some frozen stir fry vegetables and peas to the mix.
I added the sauce to the pan next, heating just until the sauce warmed up.
And the finished Kung Pao chicken was served over some good old fashioned white rice.
