Braised Chicken with Bean Curd

Braised Chicken with Bean Curd

Overview

A dish that my family loves very much. The stewed chicken is so crispy that you can even bite the bones. The most surprising thing is the yuba, which absorbs the flavor of chicken soup. It is fresh, fragrant and soft and tastes better than meat. I’d choose carrots as a side dish. Firstly, the colors look good together. Secondly, my older friend’s hands have peeled off recently and he needs to absorb more vitamins. This guy just doesn’t like to eat green vegetables, so simply frying them won’t taste good. Put some carrots in there to soak up the fat from the chicken nuggets and it’s quite fragrant. He will definitely like this.
