    in half. Remove and discard bones. Pound chicken
    breasts lightly with mallet or rolling pin.

    2. Combine cornstarch, salt and pepper in small bowl.
    Gradually blend in water and egg yolks.

    3. Pour oil into wok. Heat over high heat until oil
    reaches 375 degrees F. Dip chicken breasts, one at a
    time, into cornstarch-egg yolk mixture. Fry breasts
    two or three at a time, in hot oil until golden, about
    5 minutes. Drain breasts on absorbent paper. Keep
    warm while cooking remaining chicken.

    4. Cut each breast into three or four pieces and
    arrange on serving plate. Sprinkle with onions.

    FOR SAUCE:

    5. Combine all ingredients in medium saucepan. Stir
    until blended. Cook over medium heat, stirring
    constantly, until sauce boils and thickens, about 5
    minutes. Pour over chicken.
