This is my family favorite recipes for Chicken- Taiwanese Style (simplified version)
Ingredients:
Chopped Chicken in pcs
Thai sweet basil
Chinese dark vinegar
Ginger & shallots
Marinates Chicken:
White pepper
2 tsp five spices
2 tbsp of soy sauces
1 tbsp of dark soy sauce
a little sugar
1 tsp sesame oil
2 tsp Chinese wine
Method:
1) Marinate the chicken for at least half an hour to 2 hours in the refregirator.
2) Heat oil in the wok & fried ginger/shallots.
3) Pick up all the chicken from the marinates, retain the marinate juices. Add all the chicken into the wok now.
4) Let the meat brown a little bit for about 3-4 minutes.
5) Add about 4-6 tbsp of water mix with the marinate juices & add into the stir fried chicken.
6) Let the chicken simmers for a few minutes until it is cooked.
7) Add this point of time, you can add in the basil & the vinegar.
8) Stir fry for about a minute & serve.
Option:
-You can also fry some basil leave in oil until it is crisp & sprinkle on top of the dish. It looks more presentable.
- You can also add in one or two dried chili into this dish if you like something spicy.
