Description

This steamed chicken with ginger and soy is a light and flavorful dish, perfect for a quick and healthy dinner. The marinade with fresh ginger, garlic, rice wine and soy sauce gives the chicken an irresistible aroma. I often prepare it when I want something exotic but do not want to give up lightness. Steaming preserves the tenderness of the chicken and enhances its flavor. Ideal to serve with basmati rice or steamed vegetables. A true Asian comfort food!
