Directions
Vinegar-Glazed Chicken, From Stir-Frying to the Sky’s Edge by Grace Young, a wonderful cookbook that explores Chinese cooking around the world, as interpreted in Trinidad, Jamaica and Peru, as well as in more familiar areas. This is described as a typical Hunan family-style stir fry.Update: The reviewer is right, this is a lot of salt, and I had not focused on that when posting this in response to a request. A whole day’s salt in one serving – like some restaurant meals. I’ve revised the recipe to eliminate the salt and reduce the amount of soy sauce. The sodium level has been cut by almost two-thirds., This is a wonderful chicken dish! I know you made some adjustments to the recipe since the previous review and the changes you made must have fixed it up – it’s delicious! used chicken breasts instead of thighs, otherwise made as directed. Spicy, a little tangy with the vinegar, and the chicken was the perfect texture – moist and tender. Thanks for sharing this recipe!
