Chinese Chicken is one of the most popular of current trending foods on earth. It is easy, it’s quick, it tastes delicious. It’s appreciated by millions daily. Chinese Chicken is something which I’ve loved my entire life. They’re nice and they look wonderful.
Chinese-style ingredients like almonds, water chestnuts, mushrooms, celery and chow mein noodles combine with a creamy broth, soup and milk mixture - and chicken, of course - to form this casserole. The name comes from the fact that people who have it seem to be pleasantly surprised and wonder what is in it. Traditionally, Chinese chefs wrap the chicken with lotus leaves and sear it in clay, then bake it for a few hours. Lotus leaves add a special fragrance to the chicken and the clay sears all the flavors and juices into the meat.
To begin with this particular recipe, we have to prepare a few ingredients. You can have chinese chicken using 15 ingredients and 6 steps. Here is how you cook that.
The ingredients needed to make Chinese Chicken:
- Take 500 g chicken breast
- Prepare 2 cups chopped cabbage
- Get 1 carrot
- Make ready 1 large onion
- Make ready 1 cup flour
- Make ready 1 tbsp salt
- Make ready 1 tbsp pepper
- Take 2 tbsp seasoning of choice
- Prepare 1/4 cup siracha sauce
- Prepare 1/4 cup sweet soy sauce
- Take 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce
- Prepare 1 tbsp sesame oil

This classic Chinese dish typically consists of an entire chicken and a cup each of three essential Chinese condiments: rice wine, light soy sauce and toasted sesame oil (thus the "three cup" name). Here, Ching uses just a pound of chicken thigh meat, so only a quarter cup of each ingredient is required. This Chinese Chicken is the chicken version of Chinese Barbecue Pork. The marinade is slightly adjusted to make it more suitable for chicken - mainly less sugar because there's more surface area with chicken so I find the pork Char Siu marinade a bit too sweet and also easier to cook on the BBQ/stove without burning the marinade.
Steps to make Chinese Chicken:
- Cut chicken breast into bite sized pieces and marinate in salt, pepper and seasoning of your choice.
- Coat chicken pieces in flour and fry in shallow oil until fully cooked.
- In sesame oil sautè your chopped onion and carrots for 4 minutes. Add cabbage and sautè for a further 2 minutes.
- In a bowl mix siracha sauce, sweet soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, honey and soy sauce.
- Add the chicken, the sauce and the sesame seeds to the vegetables and let it cook until well combined.
- Garnish with sesame seeds and spring onion. Enjoy.

I made this when my daughter brought home friends from China and I wanted something they could relate to. This recipe is healthier because the chicken is stir-fried rather than deep-fried, reducing the fat content. The recipe includes red chili peppers and Szechuan peppercorns to give it a nice spice.
