Steps:
- Place chicken breasts between two sheets of wax paper or plastic wrap. Using the flat side of a meat tenderizer, pound breasts to approximately 1/2 inch uniform thickness. Pieces may be very large, in this case, cut in half.
- Place in a baking dish large enough for them to fit in a single layer. Season to taste with salt and pepper and cover with cooking sherry. Set aside until ready to cook, a minimum of 30 minutes.
- In bowl, whisk together 4 tablespoons cornstarch with 4 tablespoons water until smooth.
- In a heavy bottom sauce pan, heat chicken broth, shiitake mushrooms, dark soy sauce, unsalted butter and cornstarch mixture over low heat. Whisk until smooth. Sauce should start to thicken and mushrooms will cook down. Do not bring to a boil, whisk every 2-3 minutes while making the chicken. When it reaches a gravy consistency, remove from heat or place on a "warm" setting.
- In a shallow bowl or pie plate, whisk 6 tablespoons flour, baking powder and eggs. This mixture will be very thick. If it is so think you won't be able to dredge chicken through it, add a small amount of milk or water, but make sure it isn't too watery, you want it to stick to the chicken.
- In a shallow dish or bowl place the remaining 6 tablespoons all purpose flour and lightly season with salt and pepper.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Heat 1 inch of vegetable oil in a large heavy bottom skillet over medium-high heat.
- Lightly coat each chicken breast in flour and then dredge in egg batter. Carefully lower into hot oil. Depending on size, chicken will take from 5-7 minutes per side. Remove to a baking sheet and place in the oven to keep warm. Continue with remaining chicken breasts. The cooking time can vary considerably depending on the heat of the oil and size of the chicken. Chicken needs to be an internal temperture of 165 degrees. If the outside is cooking faster than the inside, remove and place into the oven to continue cooking.
- For plating, create a bed of iceberg lettuce, top with a piece of chicken, mushroom gravy, scallions and Chinese rice noodles.

Steps:
- To make the gravy: In a large saucepot over high heat whisk the tapioca starch and water together. Stir in the remaining ingredients and bring to a boil. Once boiling reduce heat and keep warm.
- Fry the chicken: Flatten the chicken breasts. Whisk together the batter ingredients until smooth. In a large wok over high heat, heat about 1/2 - 3/4 cup of refined coconut oil until very hot. Working in batches, dip the chicken into the batter and allow a bit of the excess to drip off before dropping it directly into the hot oil. Give the chicken a little nudge with a wooden spoon to loosen any bits that are stuck to the bottom of the pan. Let fry about 5 minutes per side until crispy and golden. Remove and drain on paper towels, repeat with remaining chicken. You can also cook the chicken using an air fryer.
- Assemble the dish: Place a bed of shredded lettuce on a plate and top with the hot chicken, pour gravy over top and top with almonds, green onions, and mustard.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Put the almonds in a mini-chopper or food processor and pulse until finely chopped. Transfer to a shallow dish and stir in the pimenton. Lightly whisk the egg whites in another shallow dish. Pat the chicken dry and season both sides with salt and pepper. Dip the chicken into the egg white and shake off any excess. Dredge the chicken in the almonds to coat. Place on a baking sheet, cover and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
- Set a wire rack on a baking sheet. Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and add the butter and 1 tablespoon of the oil. Place the chicken smooth-side down in the pan and increase the heat to medium-high. Cook, turning once, until a golden brown crust forms, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to the prepared baking sheet and bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the chicken registers 160 degrees F, about 20 minutes.
- Whisk together the vinegar and salt and pepper to taste in a medium bowl. Gradually whisk in the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil. Add the salad greens and toss to coat. Divide the salad evenly among 4 plates and serve with a piece of chicken.

Steps:
- First toast the chopped almonds in a wok until lightly golden and fragrant. Set aside and give the wok a wipe with a dry towel as you'll be using it to fry later. In a small saucepan bring the 1 1/2 cups of water for the sauce to the boil. Add the frozen chicken strips and lightly boil with the lid on for 3 minutes. Remove the chicken with a slotted spoon or a couple of forks and drain on a clean kitchen towel. Do not dump the water! Add the vegan butter and soy sauce to the chicken stock and heat until the butter melts then turn off the heat. In another saucepan mix the cornstarch with 3 tablespoons water until smooth then slowly add the chicken soy stock until all is added. Heat and stir until thick and glossy. Check seasoning, turn off heat and set aside. In a small bowl add the cornflour, baking powder, xanthan gum and whisk. Add the water and vegetable oil and whisk really well until it is smooth and really thick. Toss the drained chicken strips into some more cornflour, then coat them in the batter then into the breadcrumbs. It's easiest to have one hand for the batter and the other hand for the breadcrumbs here. Keep going until all the strips are coated and place them on a plate ready to fry. Heat about an inch or two of vegetable oil in the wok you used to toast the almonds until it is very hot. Gently place the breaded chicken into the oil and fry until crisp and golden on both sides. Remove and drain on paper towels. Repeat until all the chicken is fried. Reheat the gravy and give it a whisk- if it has thickened too much, you can also add a bit more water. Place some shredded lettuce on a plate, top with the fried chicken then spoon over the gravy generously. Sprinkle over the toasted almonds and serve immediately.

Boil 1 minute, then set aside and just keep warm. Prepare the batter by beating together cornstarch, flour, baking powder, egg, and water until smooth. Coat the seasoned chicken in the batter and fry at 375 for 5-7 minutes until golden brown on all sides. Set aside on paper towels to absorb excess oil... or just lightly coat a baking sheet with the oil and bake at 350 for 30-45 minutes. Cut chicken into small strips and lay on a bed of lettuce if using. Sprinkle with almonds and green onions, then spoon sauce over chicken and serve.

- Cut each chicken breast in half so that you have 4 pieces. Then sprinkle these pieces evenly with the garlic salt and set them aside while preparing the other ingredients.
- Next prepare the gravy. Mix together the chicken broth, soy sauce, and sherry in a medium pot and heat it on high.
- While the gravy heats, in a small cup mix together the cornstarch with a little water just until it dissolves.
- When the gravy just starts to come to a boil, add the cornstarch mixture and stir until it becomes thick. Then remove it from the heat and set it aside.
- Next prepare the batter for the chicken. In a large bowl mix together the dry ingredients (cornstarch, flour, baking powder and sugar.) Stir until everything is evenly combined.
- In a small bowl mix together the wet ingredients (egg and water.) Beat these together thoroughly and then slowly add them to the dry ingredients. Stir until a smooth batter forms and set it aside.
- Once the oil is hot, carefully dip each piece of chicken into the batter and then place it in the wok. Depending on the size of your wok, this will most likely need to be cooked in batches.
- Let the chicken cook for about 5 minutes or until lightly browned on one side. Then flip it over and let it cook another 5 to 7 minutes.
