Heat 8 cups oil in a wok over medium-high heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Reduce heat to low. Carefully lower flour-coated chicken into hot oil with a slotted metal spoon. Deep fry 30 seconds to a minute, until chicken is light golden. Remove chicken with a slotted spoon, draining well over wok. Arrange on a platter. Remove oil from wok except 1 teaspoon.

Stir sauce and pour over chicken. Garnish with lemon slices and serve immediately. Makes 4 servings.
