directions

  • Cut 1 star fruit in half crosswise and squeeze 2 tablespoons juice, using a citrus reamer or juicer; set juice aside. Or just whiz it in a food processor or blender on steroids.
  • Dice star fruit halves; set aside.
  • Slice remaining 3 star fruit crosswise and set aside.
  • Combine 2 tablespoons star fruit juice, chicken, sherry, brown sugar, ginger root, soy sauce and garlic in a bowl and stir well. Cover and chill 30 minutes.
  • Drain chicken, reserving marinade. Sprinkle chicken with cornstarch; toss well to coat. Heat vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium high heat.
  • Add chicken and star fruit; stir fry 1 minute.
  • Add bell pepper and onion and stir fry 3 minutes or until chicken is done. Add reserved marinade, sesame oil, salt and pepper; stir fry 1 minute.
  • Serve over rice.

  1. Making it now and I would recommend browning the chicken before added all the ingredients to the pot. Otherwise you get a kinda soupy mess. Also, no way it takes 4 minutes to cook the chicken. Idk what kind of pan she is using but in a regular sauté pan, this recipe just doesn’t work. Gotta use common sense instead.

As I am in South Florida, I have many edible fruits and perennial veggies in my yard. So, I like to cook with them.
