The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

2 boneless chicken breasts
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon dry sherry
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup chicken broth
4 teaspoons vinegar
1/2 teaspoon red pepper
2 tablespoons oil
2 carrots, julienne
1 large green bell pepper, cut in strips
3 tablespoons soy sauce
hot cooked rice
Cut the chicken into strips and coat with 1-tablespoon cornstarch, sherry and the garlic. Let stand for 10 minutes.
Combine the next 3 ingredients with remaining cornstarch and set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in wok over high heat. Add the chicken and stir-fry for 3 minutes. Remove from the wok.
Heat remaining oil in the same pan over high heat. Add the veggies and stir-fry for 2 minutes.
Return the chicken to the pan with the broth mixture. Cook, stirring, until sauce boils and thickens. Remove from the heat and add the soy sauce.
Serve immediately over hot cooked rice.

Pretty tasty recipe. I used a little bit extra hot pepper (I like my food spicy). Next time I make this, I'll probably use twice the amount of green pepper and carrots.
