Chinese Apricot Chicken Stir Fry

Ingredients:

1 whole chicken (4 pounds), cut up

1/2 cup rice wine vinegar or white wine vinegar

1/2 cup water

1/2 cup sugar

3 Tablespoons soy sauce

2 Tablespoons sherry

3 Tablespoons catsup

2 Tablespoons cornstarch

2 Tablespoons peanut oil

6 fresh apricots (3/4 pound), halved

3 green onions, cut into 2-inch slivers

Cut chicken parts into 2-inch pieces, using a cleaver, whacking straight down through the bone (or have a butcher do it for you). Combine vinegar, water, sugar, soy sauce, sherry, catsup, and cornstarch for sauce; set aside. In a wok or large frying pan, heat oil and stir-fry chicken over high heat 10 minutes or until tender and golden brown. Add apricots; stir-fry 1 minute. Pour sauce mixture over chicken; cook, stirring until thickened. Garnish with green onion slivers.

Makes: 6 servings
