When I make stir fried chicken I always make my own. I really like
Thai flavours, so I add ginger, garlic, chopped up Thai chilis, lime
juice, coconut milk, maybe some lemon grass, sesame oil, a bit of soy
sauce, some rice vinegar, a pinch of sugar or honey, and a tiny bit of
fish sauce. Sometimes if I want the dish to take on a Satay flavour,
I'll throw in a spoonful of peanut butter.

I don't actually make the sauce separately, I just add those things to
the stir fry pan as the chicken is cooking.

Adding a tablespoon or so of sweet sherry is nice, as well.
