This light brown sauce is made from preserved Chinese plums, quality ginger, and chilies. This is an excellent dipping sauce for any roasted meat dishes and for stir frying.

- Cut the chicken breast into 2cm dices, marinate with the salt and chicken bouillon and set aside for 15 minutes. Combine the cornstarch and baking soda, add in egg and some water to make a thick batter.
- Heat up a wok with enough oil until hot. Dip the diced chicken into the batter. Shake off the extra batter and deep-dry the chicken for 2 minutes. Scoop out and drain. Return the chicken to the wok and deep-fry until very crispy.
- Fill another skillet with a little of oil, add in garlic and stir until fragrant. Combine all the sauce ingredients and add into the skillet. Return the fried chicken to the skillet and stir until the chicken are completely coated with the sauce. Transfer to a serving dish and sprinkle some sesame seeds over.

ReplyDeleteI bet you already know this -- this recipe rocks. Love that brand of plum sauce. Heard a lot of rave reviews about Lee Kum Kee.
ReplyDeleteOh my this looks AMAZING. I love plum sauce but have never used it as a standalone ingredient for sauce (usually add it to hoisin sauce). Will have to try this.
ReplyDeleteI've had that plum sauce, delicious. Your chicken looks fantastic!
ReplyDeleteI love plum sauce and this looks really yummy! I love the sprinkle of sesame seeds and the nutty flavor that they add!
ReplyDeleteOoooh, this looks really good. My sister used to own a dry produce grocery market and she sold that brand of plum sauce. I love sesame seeds as well. I just might have to try this!
ReplyDeleteI thought of lemon chicken when I saw your pictures :) ....delicious it must be.
ReplyDeleteLove anything with sticky glaze! always good with rice!
ReplyDeleteDelicious chicken! I love Lee Ku Kee sauce, too.
ReplyDeleteIve actually been eying that bottle of plum sauce at the store for a bit always afraid it would end up disappointing. Plus I had no idea what to do with it. Great use of pre-made sauce (and letting me know that it's worth the buy)
ReplyDeleteCan you believe I never had plum sauce Angie? I need to give it a try! This looks fantastic!
ReplyDeleteYou got me here Angie! I have not had this for ages, you brought back some memories my Mother would prepare this kind of recipe on Saturday nights when I was growing up! Love plum sauce delicious and addictive!

ReplyDeleteCiao, Devaki @ weavethousandflavors
I always love deep fried foods, and the plum sauce looks like a great marinade. I still have some leftover from making yu sheng (can u believe how long it is?!), hope not expired. Time to put it to good use hehe
ReplyDeleteTime for a midnight snack! My goodness, this looks luscious.
ReplyDeleteMany a times I thought of buying a plum sauce....but never dare to as didn't have any recipe handy...this dish looks absolutely perfect and delicious to try....bookmarked.....

ReplyDeleteOoooohhhh...that looks delicious! I'd like a big plate of it right now and it's only 6am!!!
ReplyDeleteThat recipe sounds too easy to be true. And looks delicious.
ReplyDelete:)
Valerie
Wonderful recipe and it looks delicious. I wish I could reach into my monitor and take a bite!
ReplyDeleteChicken looks too delicious Angie! Love the add of sweet plum sauce!
ReplyDeleteYou are most welcome for the award. If anybody deserves it, it is definitely you! I use this Lee Kum Kee plum sauce too, the one I posted earlier, spare ribs with orange sauce. Your chicken looks absolutely delicious. Will try it your way soon!
ReplyDeleteYou deep fried these twice!? They must be really crispy! Sounds DELICIOUS! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteA wonderfully delicious preparation of chicken! I'm looking forward to getting a wok so I can make this!
ReplyDeleteI have this plum sauce and used it for cooking duck breast. Love you shot!
ReplyDeleteLooks nice and tempting.
ReplyDeleteI've seen plum sauce in Chinese groceries but I've never tried it. I wasn't quite aware of how to use it. Thanks for sharing this recipe, Angie. I will give it a try.
ReplyDeleteHey Angie, you make the best stuff-you really do. This chicken looks perfectly fried. Plus, I always see plum sauce, but I never knew what to do with it. Now I do. Do you think it would do well on tofu. You know, tossed in corn starch, fried, and then rolled in plum sauce? Maybe...?
ReplyDeleteLooks like you created the perfect chicken dish if you ask me.
ReplyDeletei like lee kum kee~ hehehe
ReplyDeleteAngie...I had once actually attempted a homemade Asian plum sauce...which was incredibly tasty. However, I've got to admit this concoction in a jar is great for taste in a jiffy. I've got to make your rcipe soon...all my favourites are in there ;o)
ReplyDeleteCiao for now,
Claudia
I've had that sauce before and it is REALLY good. This looks way better than take out!
ReplyDeleteThis looks so tasty! I just want to pile it on some rice and eat til I'm stuffed ;) !
ReplyDeleteThat chicken looks so good! I love the sesame's with it, and the plum sauce must have really pumped up the flavors!
ReplyDeleteLooks wonderful Angie! I'm bet it was out of this world delish!
ReplyDeleteCheers~
Everything in it is just yummy! Lovely clicks!
ReplyDeleteI have seen the plum sauce many times but am clueless it's use. Thanks for sharing this!
ReplyDeleteje ne connais pas cette sauce mais elle doit être excellent ainsi que ton poulet
ReplyDeletebonne soirée
Looks so incredibly tasty - perfect for the weekends or week night dinners! Nice job!
ReplyDeleteI like plum sauce! That is a delicious chicken dish.
ReplyDeleteCheers,

Delicious, drool, drool. I love this plum sauce and use it also as my steamboat (hot pot) dipping sauce.
ReplyDeleteSimple and sweet. Plum sauce is perfect with chicken!
ReplyDeleteAngie, I love 蘇梅醬! It's one of my fave ingredients in the kitchen! I like your plum sauce chicken! Simple but down-to-earth yummy home cooking!
ReplyDeleteOh, I just wanna let you know, thank you for being so supportive. It's a shame on me that I don't get to drop by daily due to my hectic schedule. But, I really appreciate your encouraging words! Let's keep it up the both of us!
Take care! =)
