Springfield Style Cashew Chicken Ii - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    4 cups water
    8 cubes chicken bouillon
    3 tablespoons cornstarch
    4 teaspoons white sugar
    1 1/3 tablespoons oyster sauce
    4 teaspoons soy sauce
    1/2 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast meat - cubed
    1 cup all-purpose flour
    1 egg
    1/4 cup milk
    1 teaspoon salt
    1 teaspoon ground black pepper
    1/2 cup cashew halves
    1/4 cup chopped green onion
    2 cups vegetable oil for frying
Preparation
    To Make Sauce: Bring water to a boil in a large saucepan; dissolve bouillon cubes in boiling water. Remove 1 cup of this broth and mix with cornstarch in a small bowl, then return mixture to saucepan and let thicken. Stir in sugar, oyster sauce and soy sauce; cover, remove from heat and set aside.
    Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
    To Make Chicken Nuggets: In a shallow dish or bowl, flour cubed chicken well and let stand in flour for 15 minutes. In a small bowl, beat egg, milk, salt and pepper together. Remove chicken from flour, dip in egg mixture, roll in flour again and deep fry in a large skillet or deep fryer until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
    Place prepared chicken nuggets on a platter; heat sauce over low heat to heat through, then pour over chicken. Sprinkle cashew halves and green onion on top and serve.
