Chinese Herbal Chicken

Ahhhh... Sundays.. sometimes- all u want to do is to just curl up in bed.. Just wish that everything is ready that u dont have to mess up the kitchen... 
Here's a dish for lunch that will definately a-mess-free :)

~ Chinese Herbal Chicken ~
 
Ingredients:

1 chicken (approx 2kg)
1 packet of wolfberries (kei chi)
1 small packet of red dates
1 small packet of solomon's seal (yu zhu)
1 1/2 packet of A1's Emperor Herbs Chicken Spices (Ayam Maharaja)


 
Method:
1. Wash n soak red dates & kei chi for a while
2. wash Yu zhu
3. Wash n pat dry chicken - i rather cut the chicken open...
4. rub chicken with A1's Emperor Chicken Spices inside out
5. sprinkle kei chi, red dates & yu zhu onto the chicken  - u can include the gizzard & liver as u wish.
6. wrap chicken with luxurious amount of kei chi, red dates & yu zhu in a plastic wrap provided in the A1's Mix- wrap tightly.
 
 
7. Put the chicken in a microwave container.
 
8. Cook d chicken in the microwave on HIGH 15 - 18 mins.
 CAUTION: its better not to over cooked d chicken as this will toughen d meat esp the breast area.. it should be juicy and tender..just nice.. :)

 
There... wallah... d chicken is ready... best eaten even with plain rice. :)
 
Note: I noticed that by adding kei chi & red dates added the sweetness to the chicken meat.. do give it a try.. another brand that i used is Uncle Sun's Emperor's Chicken Mix. 
This dish can be steamed in high heat for about 20 mins.
