Recipe By: Jerry Adams Cut chicken in 1/2 inch chunks. Combine wine, soy sauce, and corn starch. Marinate chicken in mixture for 30 minutes. Cook some rice to go along with this dish.

(That folks is engineers way of ribbing his friend and co-worker, Frank.) Posted just as he typed it to EAT-L and mc-recipe 8/29/96 by Brenda Adams. By the way, it is terrific!!!!! It is a pretty standard recipe, more like a stir fry than the typical G.Ts Chicken that you get in restaurants (we love that too!! ) This is less fattening. Feel free to edit it, change it, eat it, and pass it around. Frank and Jerry will get a kick out of that!
