Paper Chicken
There is a food site that sends me a list of new recipes every day. It's called Ptitchef. A few days ago, I found this recipe there. Hubby remembered those days when his grandma used to bring these home every time she visited his family way back when he was a child. I asked him what they tasted like and he said he didn't know, only that it tasted really good. Anyway, I decided to give them a try.
Paper Chicken.
The recipe is here. I used 4 pieces of chicken legs and back cut into two pieces, marinated them and then wrapped them in parchment paper. Aaarghhh! My parchment paper ran out and I didn't want to use wax paper. Then I remembered I had some parchment paper somewhere, stashed with my other cake decorating stuff. Aaahhh! I managed to find some but there was still one more piece unwrapped. Eh? What was that peeping out from under the microwave oven?? Yayy! The last piece of parchment paper!! Yup, we are all done. Generally, I don't really like fried stuff but Hubby likes them so here we go, lots of oil in the wok and in go the wrapped up pieces three at a time. How do you know if it is cooked? I don't know, just use your cooking sense of how long it has been in the oil.
Finally they were all done and here is one of the pieces unwrapped!
The chicken mystery unraveled.
