*Dark deboned in chunks I divided recipe portions
(above) to make it easier to pre-prepare. To make
Sauce, mix cornstarch and water together. Add garlic ,
ginger, sugar, soy sauce, vinegar and wine. Then add
broth and MSG and stir 'til sugar dissolves.
Refrigerate 'til needed. In separate bowl mix chicken,
soy sauce and pepper. Stir in egg. Add cornstarch
until chicken is coated evenly. Add oil to help
separate chicken pieces. Divide chicken in small
quantities and deep-fry @ 350 until crispy and light
brown. (Do not overcook; watch temp, stir fry or meat
will toughen). Drain on paper towels. Place a small
amount of oil in wok and heat 'til just hot. Add
onions and peppers and stir-fry briefly (peppers will
give off acrid smoke..be careful). Stir sauce;
