Thank You Card
Have you heard the word "deli-licious"? It perfectly describes the 'fixins' that are available from each of our Slone's in store deli departments. Let's start with our fried chicken- which our customers tell us is the best ANYWHERE…and we agree. We fix it fresh, from 'scratch', several times a day. We take fresh (not frozen) chicken, immerse it in our special blend of batter and coatings, then pressure fry it to perfect doneness. It's so delicious we guarantee you'll love it or we'll refund your money!
Want a great home cooked meal for just $4.99? Then stop at our deli counter and tell us what you want, your choice of a 'center plate/meat' (our fried chicken, homemade meatloaf, pork tenderloin sliced, or other favorites), plus 2 tasty side items and a freshly baked roll. The portions are large and the price is small. C'mon! Try our $4.99 deli dinners!
And don't pass by our deli without picking up a tempting dessert, or one of our unique specialty breads! We offer pies, cakes, cookies, and YES, we'll custom decorate any size or flavor cake, for any special occasion, just ask!
Winter Recipe
- 1 1/8 lb chicken breast
- 1/4 cups (1/8 pint) corn starch
- 1 green pepper
- 4 pineapple slices
- 1 medium onion
- 3 tbsp vinegar
- 4 tbsp sugar
- 4 tbsp ketchup
- 5 tbsp water
- 2 tsp corn starch
- 1/2 tsp sesame oil
- 2-4 cups corn oil, for frying
- large wok or skillet
- large chef knife
- strainer
Sauce:
Step 1: Prepare The Chicken
Start by slicing the chicken into one inch cubes and placing the cubes into a clean bowl. Now add a half cup (64 g) of corn starch into the bowl and thoroughly coat the chicken cubes. The corn starch acts as a sealing agent, keeping the chicken moist on the inside during the frying.
Step 2: Oil Blanch The Chicken
Now oil blanch the chicken cubes, which essentially means deep-frying for a very brief time. Place the chicken cubes in a few inches of pre-heated vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet. The oil should be between 325°-350° (163°-177° C). You will know when the oil is hot enough when you start to see smoke or little squiggly lines in the oil.
Take care not to overcrowd the chicken when placing in the wok. Oil blanching is intended only to seal in the chicken's moisture, not to fully cook the chicken. So when finished, the chicken is still raw inside. You will know when the chicken is done when it turns a golden brown, which will take between 30 and 60 seconds. Upon removing from the oil, drain the chicken on a paper towel and repeat the process with the remaining chicken.
Step 3: Prepare The Vegetables
Take your green peppers and seed it by either using your knife to cut out the stem or by placing three fingers on the stem and pushing down hard. In either method, you want to remove the pepper's stem and seeds. Also, remove the white ribs of the green peppers as they have a bitter flavor. Cut the green peppers into one inch cubes. Now dice the pineapple and a small to medium sized onion into similar sized cubes.
Step 4: Stir Fry
After first pre-heating your wok until it starts to smoke, add about a tablespoon of vegetable oil around the sides of the wok. When the oil is hot, add the cut onions, green peppers, and pineapple to the wok. Next, pour in your sauce ingredients starting with your vinegar, sugar, ketchup and the sesame oil. Stir all this around for at least a minute then add the oil-blanched chicken to the mix and let cook for a couple of minutes to thoroughly cook, stirring occasionally.
Step 5: Thicken The Sauce
Mix together five tablespoons of water and two tablespoons of corn starch in a small bowl with your finger. Now add this slurry to the ingredients cooking in the wok, stirring constantly so that this slurry mixture will not clump. The slurry will thicken the sauce.
