The chicken fillet must first be defrosted, and then rinsed well and dried with disposable paper towels. Drying the meat in this way is necessary so that it is better saturated with spices, and in our case, marinade.
Prepared chicken fillet cut into small cubes and place in a deep plate. Fill it with a mixture of one tea spoons of vinegar, onetablespoon sugar and three tablespoons soy sauce. Mix thoroughly and leave to marinate for 20-30 minutes.
After the chicken fillet has been soaked in the marinade, drain the liquid from it. Heat it in a frying pan 3 tablespoons vegetable oil, then place the cubes in it chicken meat and fry them over medium heat until full readiness, and the sides of the fillet pieces should be covered with an appetizing golden blush.
After frying, place the chicken fillet on disposable paper towels and wait until the meat cools and gets rid of excess oil.
