Heat the cup of vegetable oil just until boiling point. add to juice, soy sauce salt and pepper mixture. add chicken right away. marinate for at least 25 minutes (I marinated for about 2 1/2 hours) Chop the leeks - heat the butter and oil, add leeks and thyme, and sautee leeks in that for several minutes. Remove the chicken from the marinade and add to leeks. Cover and cook 5 minutes. Add white wine, cook uncovered for a few minutes more. Make sure chicken is cooked through. Turn off heat and add cornstarch (how much? Maybe a teaspoon?) to suit desired consistency. See less
