These three cups refer to sesame oil, soy sauce and wine, but you can’t use them in a 1: 1 ratio, otherwise this delicious food will be off-balance.
Furthermore, the ginger slices in the authentic three cups of chicken are the favorite of foodies. Want to know why? Follow me once, try it yourself. Let’s cook this Chinese Three Cup Chicken today!
Ingredients
2-serving
2 chicken breast
2 scallion
1 piece of ginger
some garlic

Seasoning

Few Rock sugar
Cooking Steps for Chinese Three Cup Chicken
In the pot, no need to add the oil, just put the chicken directly (the chicken skin is facing down), pull out the chicken oil, then pour the chicken oil, and cut the chicken into pieces. (only fry one side is enough)
Add sesame oil to the casserole, then put sliced ginger, chili, garlic, panfry some time, three to five minutes.
Add the chopped chicken, add a teaspoon of rock sugar and stir-fry.
Add 50ml of soy sauce and 50ml of rice wine to saute, cover the lid and cook the juice
Add basil, scallion and finally pour 50ml of rice wine on the side of the casserole.

Tips for Chinese Three Cup Chicken
I would recommend the ratio of rock sugar: soi sauce: rice wine is 1:2:4, and the wine
The traditional Chinese culture holds that sesame oil should not be added to the hot pot with high heat. It must be fried from the cold pot to be good for health.
The ginger slices, panfried and simmered in a small fire, will be more fragrant and not too much spicy, if not, the taste of ginger will be spicy. The ginger pieces cooked with three cup chicken are very delicious, so be patient and be careful to panfry.
You can choose any kind of chicken you like or different part of chicken.
Old or young ginger both are ok and you can choose chili which you like, it’s not necessary to add chili.
