      Yield: 4 Servings
 
    1/2 lb Boneless chicken breasts
           - skinned
      1    Egg white
    1/2 ts Salt
    1/2 ts Cornstarch
      6 oz Fresh bean sprouts
      4 oz Snow peas; trimmed

    2/3 c  Oil, preferably peanut
      1 ts Salt
 
  CUT THE CHICKEN INTO VERY THIN shreds and combine these with the egg
  white, salt and cornstarch in a bowl. Mix well and chill in the
  refrigerator for about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, trim the bean sprouts,
  finely shred the snow peas lengthwise, and shred or slice the water
  chestnuts. Heat the oil in a wok or large skillet and when it is
  almost smoking, add the chicken. Stir- fry quickly for 1 minute.
  Drain the chicken in a colander or sieve immediately. Pour off the
  oil, leaving 1 tablespoon in the wok. (The rest of the oil may be
  saved when it is cooled and used for future cooking with chicken.)
  Reheat the wok and stir-fry the vegetables for 2 minutes. Return the
  drained chicken to the pan, stir to mix well, and add the salt. Give
  the mixture a few more stirs and then turn it onto a warm serving
  platter.
