As I want my family to have healthy meals so I prefer steamed instead of fried. This steamed herbal chicken that I cooked is an easy and fast dish. Of course this dish is very famous in the family too...You just need to get fresh chicken and those herbs for this dish. And I sure that all those herbs are easy to get and every household surely will have this in the fridge.
These are the herbs I used for my steamed chicken. I added dong guai (当归) as my father taught me, it will give more flavour.
