Cereal Chicken Chop


'Cereal Chicken Chop' ......... After trying out the 'Cereal Prawns' I experimented the premix cereal with chicken but this time I omitted the bird eye chillies.  In fact this cereal is very versatile, can be used for fish fillet as well!  Result, just one word ...... Yummy!



Just pan fry the marinated chicken thigh, once cooked, dish out.  Melt some butter, stir-fry the curry leaves, cereal mix and return the chicken into the mixture and you are done.






Dish out the chicken pieces onto a serving plate, add in some cucumber slices, shredded carrots and cabbage, sprinkle on some lime, and dinner is ready .............. Enjoy!

Ingredients
  • 3 chicken legs, skin removed and deboned
  • 40 gm cereal mix
  • 1 Japanese cucumber, peeled and sliced
  • 1 stick carrot, shredded
  • Some cabbage, shredded
  • 1 to 1.1/2 Tbsp margarine/butter
  • 2 to 3 kaffir ~ limau kasturi leaves, optional
  • Oil for frying
Preparation
  1. Wash and pat dry the chicken legs.
  2. Pan fry the chicken legs in a non-stick pan, flip from side to side till thoroughly cooked.  Dish out.
  3. Wash the pan, heat up some butter, once melted, toss in the curry leaves and stir-fry.
  4. Add in the cereal mix and  the cooked chicken pieces.  Stir-fry and dish out onto serving plates.
  5. Garnish with the cucumber slices, shredded carrot and cabbage.
  6. Squeeze some lime onto the salad if desired.
  7. Serve hot.

    Your dish just reminded me that I still have a packet of the cereal mix somewhere but have yet to try it out. Hope it is still ok. I like the use of chicken here. They look yummy.

    Oh yum. This sounds good. Aunty, did you use something similar to Nestum, or more crunchy like cornflakes? It looks very crisp and delicious.

    If you go to my 'Cereal Prawns' recipe there's a pic of the premix.
    It's oats with some premix, think some salt, sugar, pepper, maybe some ajimoto. Come to think of it, used to have Nestum dishes in the restaurant menu, but this has faded somewhat.

Snow Swallow Dessert ~ 天然野生雪燕

  Natural Wild Tragacanth Gum 'Snow Swallow' or Xue Yan is a gum derived from different varieties of sterculia trees.  It's actually a sap drained from the root of the plant and  the gum dries as it exudes and is then collected.  Once rehydrated will increase to about ten times in size and their white stringy, jelly like strands texture resembles that of the much prized and highly valued bird's nest.  One thing to take note when cooking this dessert is that the gum is highly soluble in water and cannot be boiled too long. Since it is 'cooling' for our internal organs, the elderlies should take this in moderation and not recommended for nursing mums for the breast milk may cause the baby to purge. Snow Swallow Dessert  ~   天然野生雪燕 Ingredients 8 gm Snow Swallow gums 10 gm red dates 10 gm goji berries 20 gm dried longan Rock or piece sugar to taste 1 litre water Pandan leaves (optional) Method Soak the Snow Swallow gums in plenty of water for at least...
