Chicken slices with assorted vegetables and hibiscus

Overview

Hibiscus chicken slices are so named because they resemble hibiscus, are white and tender. It is one of the representative dishes in Shandong cuisine. The traditional Shandong cuisine method is to use egg white to release the minced chicken bit by bit, and then put it into warm oil with a frying spoon and slowly pull it into a sheet. This requires a very high level of chefs. What I used today is another production method, using minced chicken and hard foamed egg white. The finished product tastes salty and fresh, and the texture is equally soft, tender and smooth. As for the side dishes, there are also many kinds. You can use ham, carrot slices, mushrooms, cucumbers, bamboo shoot slices, vegetable bladders, tomatoes, etc. You can mix it with whatever you have on hand. If there is no broth, you can use water instead.
