Recipe: Three Cup Chicken
June 13, 2015
I was preparing for my second housewarming party which has a Chinese theme. I’m very much worried to fail so I did a trial a day before of the main dish -> Three Cup Chicken.
Luckily, even the trial was a success. Because of that, I became more confident in serving the dish to my guests 🙂
I initially thought that cooking Three Cup Chicken is difficult but apparently, we can cook one in just 30 minutes. It was really yummy and I intend to cook this more!
