Chicken Pau, a popular dim sum dish originating from Chinese cuisine, is a steamed bun filled with savory chicken. The tender and flavorful filling often includes ingredients like diced chicken, soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger, garlic, and scallions, creating a harmonious blend of sweet and salty flavors. The outer bun, made from wheat flour, is light and fluffy due to the steaming process. While Chicken Pau provides protein from its chicken filling, it can be high in sodium depending on the seasoning and sauces used. Additionally, the refined flour in the bun contributes carbohydrates but lacks fiber. This dish is easy to prepare and serves as a satisfying snack or light meal. Pairing it with fresh vegetables or opting for whole-grain versions of the bun can make it a more balanced choice for health-conscious eaters.
