    | 1. Make sure to start your rice before starting the Walnut Chicken! | 2. Cut chicken into half-inch pieces. | 3. Mix 3 T cornstarch, 2 T of the oil and 2 T soy sauce in the bottom of a large bowl (add more soy sauce if needed, until the cornstarch is smooth and semi-liquid). | 4. Add the sugar, garlic and ginger powder and mix. | 5. Add the chicken and stir to coat. Put aside. | 6. Heat 1 T oil in a large frying pan. Fry the walnuts until they are golden brown. It takes a while to get the nuts up to temperature, but then they brown very rapidly. | 7. Move the walnuts to a separate bowl. | 8. Put the chicken in the heated frying pan and stir-fry for a couple of minutes, until the pieces are separated. | 9. Add the nuts to the chicken and stir-fry for a couple more minutes. | 10. Add the warm water and 1/2 C of soy sauce to the pan and stir to make a sauce. | 11. If more sauce is desired, just add additional water and heat. | 12. Serve hot with rice. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
