Heat until about 350 degrees, then add pieces of chicken, four or five at a time, and deep-fry until brown. Drain and transfer to a warm platter. Repeat until all the chicken is cooked. In a second wok or saute pan, stir-fry the carrots and onion in a little peanut oil until the onion begins to become transparent. Add the mushrooms and stir-fry for 2 minutes.
