These days, I am using fuss-free ways of preparing tasty, delicious food in my kitchen. Remember the Baked Nam Yee Spare Ribs, Baked Spicy Nyonya Chicken and Baked Pandan Chicken? These are normally prepared by deep frying method. If these can be baked and yet taste as yummy as fried ones why not for Fried Chicken Parcels [Chi Pau Kai]. Moreover, it is so much healthier and the flavours are well infused in the meat instead of diffusing into the oil.
The baked chicken wrapped with greased proof paper is tender, moist, aromatic and very tasty. I served it with mashed potatoes and a vegetable dish. This makes a complete meal for a carefree Sunday dinner.
Recipe adapted from Yum Yum Magazine No. 89 [modified]
