FAQs?

Can we use coconut oil for making this chicken?

Yes, for sure. Using coconut oil for making this Chinese chicken will give a more coconut kind of flavor to your Chinese Chicken and it will ultimately get more delicious.

Why do we use garlic and ginger juice instead of minced ones?

The juices get dissolved more quickly in the gravy of your chicken rather than the minced cloves and ginger and the juices will make the gravy more luscious.
