About Drunken chicken

Drunken Chicken is a flavorful dish with origins in Chinese cuisine, often associated with the Jiangsu region. This dish typically features poached chicken marinated in a mixture of Shaoxing rice wine, soy sauce, ginger, and other aromatic spices. The alcohol lends a tender texture and distinctive depth of flavor to the meat. While high in protein from the chicken, its sodium content can be significant due to soy sauce and added seasonings. Shaoxing wine contributes calories from carbohydrates but in moderate amounts. Drunken Chicken can be served cold, making it a refreshing appetizer. Its balance of lean protein and aromatic ingredients makes it a flavorful option, though individuals mindful of sodium intake or alcohol content should enjoy it in moderation. Fresh garnishes, such as scallions or cilantro, can enhance its taste and nutritional profile.
