Chicken preparation

Cut the chicken into very small cubes. In a bowl, mix the chicken with 3 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 teaspoon of sugar, 1 tablespoon of port wine, a pinch of white pepper, 5 tablespoons of cornstarch and ½ teaspoon of garlic powder. Mix well to make sure the chicken is well coated.

Toasting the almonds

Pour a drizzle of oil into a pan and heat over high heat. Add 200 g of peeled almonds and toast, stirring continuously, until golden brown. Remove the almonds from the pan and set aside.

Cooking the chicken

In the same pan, add another drizzle of oil and heat over high heat. Pour the marinated chicken into the pan and cook, stirring continuously, for about 1 minute, until cooked and golden brown.
