Directions
Chickens Stewed With Chestnuts, This is a real Cantonese comfort food. The chestnut gives it a very nice sweet flavour to the dish. It is worth the little bit of prep effort., Wonderful authentic Chinese comfort food, just like the chicken with chestnuts we enjoyed in a small restaurant in Shanghai. I was very pleased to see this recipe here. I did take a shortcut by using ready-roasted Chinese chestnuts. So it was easy as well as very good. I also used an approximately 1 by 3/4-inch piece of fresh ginger instead of young ginger. Other than the above, I followed the recipe strictly.
