Chilli plum fried chicken with mixed nuts

Preparation time
30 minutes
Cooking time
30 minutes
Serves
2 people as part of a shared meal

The chicken would be excellent with a fruit-forward Rosé. Choose one with subtly sweet fruit flavours and juicy acidity rather than a super-austere style for a perfect pairing. 

1 chicken breast, cut into 3cm pieces

1 chicken thigh fillet, cut into 3cm pieces

A pinch each of salt, sugar, white pepper

Oil for frying

50g walnuts

50g cashew nuts

50g pine nuts

1 tbsp honey

1½ tbsp potato starch

1½ tbsp plain flour

1 tbsp Lee Kum Kee Garlic Chilli Sauce

100g Lee Kum Kee Plum Sauce

50ml water

Black sesame seeds, to garnish

Chicken marinade

1 lemongrass stem, white part only, chopped

4 cloves garlic, chopped

2 eschallots, chopped

20g ginger, chopped

1 egg

1/2 tsp chicken powder

  1. Blend all marinade ingredients except chicken in a blender. Place in a bowl with chicken and mix well. Marinate in refrigerator for 15-30 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan over medium heat and fry all nuts separately. Drain. Toss walnuts in honey. Cool and roughly chop. Set aside. 
  3. Remove chicken pieces from marinade. Combine potato starch and plain flour in a bowl. Add chicken and toss to coat. Heat oil to 180°C. Deep fry chicken pieces for 5-8 minutes or until golden and cooked through. 
  4. Heat a frying pan over medium heat, add Lee Kum Kee Garlic Chilli Sauce and Lee Kum Kee Plum Sauce and water. Bring to the boil, stirring until it thickens. Add chicken, toss to coat in sauce. 
  5. Place half the chopped nuts on serving plate, add chicken, top with remaining nuts. 
  6. Garnish with black sesame seeds.

Mark Olive’s crusted kangaroo fillets recipe
We recommend a Tempranillo with a hint of spice to pair with the spicy elements in this dish. Try the Heirloom Vineyards Tempranillo 2015 from the Adelaide Hills – although powerful, it shows elegance and balance with a bold core of red and black fruits, subtle vanillin spice notes, bright acidity, velvety tannins and a long finish.

Peter Gunn’s lamb neck wrapped in parsley recipe
Alex Russell’s Alejandro range of wines, new to Wine Selectors, is really wowing the Panel and his 2014 Montepulciano would be ideal with the lamb. A delicious example of this Italian variety, it’s savoury and ripe yet lively and fresh with a plush core of black fruits and just the right amount of tannic grip to counter the fat in the lamb. It’s a great alternative to lamb’s traditional partner, Cabernet Sauvignon .
