Directions
Joi Gai — Drunken Chicken, This is a traditional dish of Shanghai for which the city is quite famous It is usually served as the first course of a banquet, but also makes a nice lunch or dinner entree for warm weather Adapted from The Chinese Way: Healthy Low-Fat Cooking From China’s Regions , This took me straight back to Shanghai! I couldn’t get enough of it and ate it piece by piece while I waited for it to marinate It tastes very light, the onions, cilantro, and ginger really impart their flavor into the chicken The cooking method insures that the meat is moist and succulent I’ll refer to this recipe when I need chicken for salads too I cooked some asparagus in the left-over broth and I’ll probably add some veggies to the broth tomorrow for lunch Thank you PAC Baby ’09
