Chicken Yum-Yums

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 24 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Appetizers Chicken

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon black pepper -- or to taste
4 skinless boneless chicken breast halves -- cubed in
1-inch pieces
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon garlic -- crushed
2 teaspoons red pepper flakes
1/2 cup vegetable oil

Heat oven to 350? F. Combine flour and pepper in a bowl or Ziploc baggie.
Coat chicken pieces in flour mixture until fully coated. Heat oil in frying
pan until hot enough to sizzle when adding a sprinkle of flour. Add the
floured chicken and brown on all sides. (Do not let it get fully cooked,
but just until it gets a nice brown crust.) Drain the pieces on a paper
towel. In a 13x9-inch baking pan, place pieces of chicken in a single
layer. In a measuring cup or small bowl, mix the soy sauce, sugar, crushed
garlic and red peppers. Stir so that it is well blended and the sugar is
mostly dissolved. This will be a bit thick; it will become a glaze and gel
up during the cooking period. Pour the glaze over the chicken and mix
around so all the pieces are coated. Bake for 30 minutes at 350? F,
stirring the pieces every 10 minutes to get them evenly coated with the
glaze.

Serve warm with toothpicks for spearing.
