    Asparagus Chicken With Black Bean Sauce, This is a very tasty family favourite that I’ve slightly modified from the original which came from a great cookbook called Thai Cooking and More NOTE #1 Just so there’s no confusion, this recipe uses a prepared Chinese Black Bean Sauce, NOT your regular black beans This can be found with the ethnic foods at your local grocer, usually where you find soy sauce, etc This is also where you’ll find the hot chili paste; my preference is Sombel Oelek NOTE #2 Prep time includes 30 minute marinating time , I was looking for a recipe for a chicken asparagus dish that I ate at Chinese restaurant that we like so much Glad I found this recipe, its very close to the taste of that dish Thanks genius chicken!, It was delicious!!! used chicken leg quarters (chopped into 8 pieces) instead of chicken breast because that’s all I had I had to cook it a bit longer though but still really yummy The only other thing I did differently was use powdered ginger instead of fresh b/c I was too lazy to grate it
