Sichuan Boiled Chicken 水煮肉

I found this delicious recipe from sbar.com and translate to English. I changed few ingredients so that you can find them in the grocery stores around you.

Step One:
  • 1 lb. Chicken or pork, cut into thin slices
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 Tbsp. cooking wine
  • 1 Tbsp. cornstarch
Marinate chicken with salt, cooking wine and cornstarch for at least 15 minutes.

Step Two:
  • 1/2 of Chinese cabbage
Break the cabbage into small bite sizes. Cook in the boiled water until just turn soft. Drain the water and lay them on the bottom of a large bowl.

Step Three:
  • 2 Tbsp. Chilli Black Bean sauce
  • 1 small bottle of La-Yu (1.11 Fl oz.)
  • 2 cups chicken broth or water
  • Minced ginger, green onion, garlic
  • Salt and ground pepper to your taste
Heat a medium saucepan on high, add La-Yu and black bean chilly sauce, then add ginger, onion and garlic. Saute about 3 minutes until onion and garlic turn soft. Add broth or water and bring to boil. Place marinate meat into the boiling sauce one piece at a time until all meat are cooked. Add salt and pepper to your taste. Pour the cooked meat with the sauce over the cabbage in the bowl. Serve hot with steamed rice.
