Stir-Fried Chicken with Yellow Peppers and Snow Peas

• 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons plus 1 1/2 teaspoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons rice vinegar
• 1 1/2 teaspoons Asian (toasted) sesame oil
• 1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon water
• 1 whole skinless boneless chicken breasts (about 3/4 pound), cut into 3/4-inch-thick pieces
• 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
• 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
• 1/3 cup chicken broth
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
• 1 tablespoon minced scallion
• 2 teaspoons minced garlic
• 1 1/2 teaspoons minced peeled fresh gingerroot
• 1 small yellow bell pepper, cut into thin strips
• 1/4 pound snow peas, trimmed and halved crosswise
• cooked rice as an accompaniment

1. In a bowl stir together 1 teaspoon of the cornstarch, 1 1/2 teaspoons of the soy sauce, 2 teaspoons of the vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon of the sesame oil, and 1 tablespoon of the water until the cornstarch is dissolved, add the chicken, and let it marinate for 15 minutes.
2. In a small bowl stir together the remaining 1 tablespoon cornstarch, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 2 tablespoons vinegar, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, and 1/3 cup water with the sugar, the salt, and the broth until the cornstarch is dissolved and reserve the mixture.
3. In a wok or large heavy skillet heat the vegetable oil over moderately high heat until it is hot but not smoking, in it stir-fry the chicken mixture until the chicken is opaque and just cooked through, and transfer the chicken with a slotted spoon to a sieve set over a bowl.
4. Discard all but about 2 tablespoons of the oil remaining in the wok and in it stir-fry the scallion, the garlic, and the gingerroot for 10 seconds, or until the mixture is fragrant.
5. Add the bell pepper and the snow peas and stir-fry mixture for 1 minute.
6. Add the reserved broth mixture and the chicken and stir-fry the mixture for 1 minute, or until the chicken is heated through.
7. Serve the chicken stir-fry over the rice.
